I have received my order, no issues. I will need to do a review on the product around Dec.1th once I use them.
Did not like the idea of plain recepticals on outdoor lighting. I've seen no objective testing of this product but I just feel better knowing that water intrusion is at least being resisted. Cheap peace of mind.
these are awesome...needed them for my Christmas lights setup work great for connecting the sections of lights and for terminating the connections with no risk of water intrusion. Is way easier then taping the line or using expensive plug covers.
Normally every year I used ziplock bags or tape to cover all my plugs. This year I ordered these to try and they worked great. It rained and everything was fine. I wish I had these years earlier.
So far gaskets working well between plug connections. I have some white lights that are up year round. The problem I run into is plugging 2 prong lights into a 3 hole extension cord, the plastic plug ends are designed to snap off the third prong and reused by itself it needed. I can't get them to break off cleanly, the top ends up being too big to fit as a fill in with a 2 prong plug, it will push the plug away from the extension, so you don't have a tight connection anymore. There is not enough room for the third prong cap, it is too big to fit flush. I've tried filing them down and trimming them with no luck. A short video on how to trim these to fit and with what tool would be helpful.
Recent purchase for this year. Bought both the plastic plug and silicone gaskets. Had a good rain and my xmas display shorted out.
Every year our external Christmas lights would short out from rain or snow. After inserting these gaskets our lights haven’t shorted out once! I’m completely satisfied!
Simple to use, no electrical taping needed to keep the Christmas lights up during the rain. You do need quite a few of them if you decorate a lot. Wish they were cheaper, given the simplicity of the process.
We run a light exhibit for almost 2 months, and when lights turn off in the rain it makes for disappointed guests. These gaskets have been a game changer, and I now the only water problems I have are where I didn't use these. Highly recommend.
I used the plug shield at every connection and still had the same issue with water getting in the plugs. I’m sure it keeps some water out but not enough to keep the GFCI from tripping.

After receiving and installing the gaskets on our outdoor Christmas lights, It started to rain on Sunday. And just like in the past the breaker tripped and all the lights went out. Would not recommend or buy again.
I just used these on my outdoor Christmas lights and they are very nice to use, and they
Make a nice tight waterproof seal
