Innotree Fairy Lights USB Plug In with Timer Remote Dimmable, 33Ft 100 LEDs Warm White Starry String Lights for Bedroom Indoor Outdoor Decorative
Although this video demo is from 2017, this exact timer came with my 2020 fairy lights. If you want to SETUP timer function DO NOT use the remote ON button! Instead turn on lights via the MANUAL ON BUTTON on the PLUG. That’s what I learned on the internet after coming here for help 2 days ago! Once you push the ON button on the PLUG then push TIMER on the remote. Your lights will be on timer function for 6 hours on and 18 hours off unless you turn them off/ on with the red and green remote buttons.
This is the reason I came to the video. Thank you for your comment 😀
I've turned timer on and can't get it off again 😩 I've lost my manual. How can I get timer off? I can't even switch my lights on when they're not scheduled to be on
You’re amazing! Thanks!
You have to press the ON button on the plug at the time you want them to come on every day. Then press the pattern you want (in my case #8), then press TIMER. They'll come on every day at that time & go off 6hrs later.
I'll have to do it tomorrow - I missed the time for today ! Lol. Thanks for explaining !!
Thanks! I have a few sets of these lights and could not get timer to work no matter any combination of buttons I pressed. Instructions did not match remote. This video did not show it.
Now they work.
For everyone wondering, when you press the timer button it will stay on for 6 hours and when the 6 hours are over it will stay off for 18 hours and when the 18 hours are over it will stay on for another 6 hours. Hope I helped
Thanks!
Thank you was trying to figure that out
@@conscious5122 no problem!
@@milperez809 you're welcome! :D
Sir you helped me as well. thank you
I had such a hard time trying to figure out how to open the remote control for battery changing. Thanks!
Thank you for this guide. I bought two sets of these lights. There was no instructions. It took this video for me to know that I needed to open it and put battery in.
I was hoping you would help with the timer for these remote lights.
Thank you for this! Your video came up when I Google searched how to open the back of these remotes. I didn't want to break it so am thankful for your video tip.
Why did you not cover the timer feature? You spent 8 minutes showing us a light string and all the features except the one I was looking for = the timer ! I still gave you a like for effort.
You have helped me more than you'll ever know, I bought these light's and they came with a remote I couldn't open, batteries I didn't know what they were called so I could buy them. One click on your video and ALL my questions are answered, thank you and 😘.

Hey do you know how to make a certain mode to stay on without changing over and over?
@@kierstingarrison848 there's no way to do that
@@kierstingarrison848 same here, it keeps changing Into different modes and I can't just get it to stay on one and without the flicking. Hopefully he can see you comment and help us both.
@@PoolarityChannel But how does the timer work?
OMG, the timer!
Thanks so much, couldn't figure out the timer function till I read your post
Mine come on in cycle mode. How do I get them to just come on and stay on when they are switched on. I wish to tell Alexa to turn them on and off through a smart plug? Thanks.
How about the Timer!
I watched this video just to find out how to use the timer, and that's the ONLY thing you didn't explain. Lol
This video was super helpful, bought these lights but had no idea how they work
I have one question how do you set the timer! On this ??? Thank you
How about how do you use the timer... and thanks for the video???
I’m trying to figure it out right now!! The pack apparently doesn’t come with instru
For everyone wondering, when you press the timer button it will stay on for 6 hours and when the 6 hours are over it will stay off for 18 hours and when the 18 hours are over it will stay on for another 6 hours. Hope I helped
@@Kasamik0 how do you turn off the timer
Thank you because i couldn't figure out how to open it,,lol
As always great videos. You should do one on your Lego setup. Ive always wanted to create a Lego town type of thing but don't have the room for it.
Nice thanks..I wanna see the LEGO set lit up 💡
Before posting a question please read at least 6 to 10 comments. I'll bet you'll find the answer! Which will save everybody a lot of time sorting through the same questions over and over. Just read please!
How do you use the Timer button on the remote?
How to set the timer
Unbelievable! I had to come back to my comment here a year ago to refresh my memory on how to use the timer function. Use the red and green buttons on the remote to turn the lights off or on without timer function. To time your lights 6 hours on then off, push the ON button on the PLUG first, then push TIMER.
Still no idea how to set the timer
Here's my problem with these kinds of Lights. I can't get it to stay on the setting I want and it keeps cycling through all 8 modes. I know there's a way of doing this and I haven't figured it out yet
I know exactly what you mean. This particular one does stay on the setting.
Liberty Justice me too, did you get it to work, if yes then pleAse tell me haha
Press timer bc it might be on and that's how I turned mine of
Bit late, but I’ve just received these lights, has anyone been able to keep it on the same mode?
same, i can’t figure out how to do this so if anyone could let me know as well that would be great
Thank you!
The timer?
Thank you, I lost my direcions you saved my sanity
you missed the most important part. How to set the timer
I have bought many of these from China, cheap as chips, however. I never knew they had a timer. Maybe I should leave them on to see if a timer function indeed works. On my type the blue button just acts like the remote and cycles through the different modes, then off. The lights actually work through reverse polarity. That is to say that every other led is wired in reverse. The small ic unit then switches polarity to switch every other led on and off. In fact the lights are not actually on constantly but are flashing so fast the human eye cannot detect them being off (a bit like LEDs run on AC), that's how the dimming is controlled and the flashing speed. A very amazing little ic chip which must be produced in the millions for the units to be so cheap. I actually cut the lights off and put them in an empty bottle. I drill a small hole in the bottom of the bottle and glue an upturned IKEA cork cup holder onto the bottom, also with a hole. I thread the wires through and solder them back on the usb unit. That's after I have removed the USB plug and wired a female mico usb connector to it and then glued the micro usb connector into the cup holder side. Any phone charger then just plugs in. I either extend the ir receiver to the outside of the cup holder to allow for ir usage or I wire up an additional micro button and solder wires to the one on the unit and glue the new switch on the outside the cup holder for use. the
Certainly many different uses for the lights and ic unit if one is willing to do a little soldering ;-)
How do you work the timer on these lights? I have the same lights and they didn't come with the instructions. There's a timer button, I just have no idea how to set it or see if it's on or off. Please, I'm going through so many batteries 😭😭😭😭
Great video; a big help! Link led to solar lights, not usb.
Please show me how the timer works. I bought one of these and can't figure out how the timer works. I've mashed the timer button, but they never shut off.
These kinds of LED control boxes all usually work the same way. You plug in and leave them powered up continuously. When you select "Timer" the lamps will run for 8 Hours from that point, then switch off for 16 hours, then on again for 8 hours... until you press Timer and disable it. So, power them up and press Timer ONCE... then come back 9 hours later and you will find them switched off.
Ok...thank you!
@@johncoops6897 HELP! so do you press ON and then TIMER? or just TIMER?
Icon makes angry.
@@lisalyon4951
i have the same one, but i just got it and it’s not working, how do i turn it on..
How do you turn the timer off? Thanks
Cant wait to hang mine but I bought a different brand (moorbest) curtain string lights they look the same though with your brand thanks for the review
Anyone know how to keep each mode consistent? Mine, like the instructors, start speeding up in each mode. E.g. I press mode 1 it’s starts flashing and gets faster to really quick flashes after a a few seconds then resets to slow again. This seems weird and uncomfortable as a setting and I wonder if there was something I was missing? Please help!!
I wanted to know how to use the timer.
Look at one of the top comments.
I have the lights on a timer and I like the steady on #8 however, each time they come on, I have to reset them to 8. Is there a way to program them so they come on in the “8” steady on mode?
Also looking in to this. Were you able to find an answer?
Great video, thanks to the blogger, I can supply the machine if anyone wants to make this product.
came here to see the timer, man didnt even bother talking about it
After you press Timer, it will shut off after 8 hrs, meaning On for 8, Off for 16 hrs, then On for 8 again
Poolarity - Life Hacks if i click it again, does it reset the timer?
@@sappysenpai4394 Turns it off, if you click it again.
Do you press on first and then timer?
@@PoolarityChannel Do you press on first then timer?
What about the timer ?
For everyone wondering, when you press the timer button it will stay on for 6 hours and when the 6 hours are over it will stay off for 18 hours and when the 18 hours are over it will stay on for another 6 hours. Hope I helped
@@Kasamik0 how do I reset it
@@Kasamik0 How to disable the timer function so that the lights stay on permanently?
I thought this was wireless, where you could use it without plugging it in, but you have to always have it plugged into a socket in order for it work.
I'm not too sure if they have any. I personally have these lights and I actually use a portable charger and it works just fine because just like you I cant plug mine into the wall.
I’m a year late, but they do have battery operated ones. That’s what I use.
Cant figure out whst the plug is put into wher do i put it. Looks like a cell jack
I know this video came out a while ago but on my lights that I got on the box I plug in changes color but the lights itself don't change and I lost the instructions. I was wondering if I was doing something wrong?
need to know about the timer
Same
Yes everything BUT the timer
Can you put 2 of this lights in series and use only one control???
yes I have one with 3 lights and one remote. problem is now I just added some new ones in the same room and the works for the new 2 and not the previous 2. trying to figure that out now
Thank you for this video!!! It is very helpful!! ^_^
I brought usb string lights for room decoration and I don't have enough plugs in my room enough power banks I don't know how to decorate with out plug plz suggest some solution
how to setup the timer?
How do I wrap them around my maple leaf garland I’ve ruined one set by trying to do this .
Can you post the directions for the lights in a link from this video? I had ours set to stay on 24hr 7days, but we lost power and I cannot remember how to do that
Does anyone know how to turn off the timer????
Did you figure it out yet? Because I need to know
Wrong Amazon link. Anyone have the correct one?
I was trying to figure out how to use the timer. 🙄
I got 2 sets and the remote doesn't work to either one. I have to press the little button on the plug to turn it on and off.
Seriously, how would you do a video, show every button on the remote control EXCEPT the Timer function ?!? Man I despair sometimes.
You didn't explain the timer
I just wasted 8 minutes watching this, only to find that you failed to explain the timer. (Thanks the to commenters below who did explain it.)
Mine didn’t come with a coin batter
How to use timer?
I have these and also those LED strip lights, so I set them up and now all of a sudden these fairy lights won’t turn on, but the remote works on the LED strip lights. Idk what to do help 😭😭
Does anyone know where to find lights like this for clothing cause its like no one does.
Does anyone know how to extend the range of the remote? I used battery operated fairy lights to decorate my yard, but, due to the distance, I have to go into the yard to get the remote to turn off some of the lights.
Where can i buy thees LED and how much cost
See the link in the description area of the video
Where can i buy fairy light
How do u get lights to work without remote control
following
Use the single button on the plastic shroud that encloses the USB plug.
So what if the remote wont work. New battery in it? Is there a way to reset it?
Changing the battery works, if that doesn't work, then just buy a cheaper set for the remote itself, should be compatible.
I just needed to go closer to operate the remote. You also need to point directly at the plastic box that has the button.
Mine always cycles through all the different settings and I can’t turn it off. I normally wouldn’t care, but I have mild epilepsy and can’t handle a lot of the flashier settings. Anyone know how to turn this off?
Anyone know how to connect a new remote
how do you untangle it
The led remote turns on my led lights too I have both led lights and those string lights now the led lights won't turn off with the string lights remote that I used to turn it on with how do I fix that because now my led lights remote can't turn on and off my led lights
No music with lights?
Does anyone know if you can program multiple strands to one remote? Thanks
Yes, one strand can operate multiple strands (of the same general type).
Why not put the controller IN SHOT, then aim the remote towards it? So stupid to have the IR target somewhere off to the right and then have to watch you struggling to try and demonstrate. At one stage you actually used TWO hands on the remote and you still failed to press the buttons and aim the remote properly. Talk about making things difficult LOL - and only at about 5 minutes in did you tell us it was USB powered
Doesn't it just make you want to run out and buy a few?
What about the damn timer????
I figured everything out but the timer. The only thing everyone wants to know you skipped
what is the source of the light ?
At the end is a usb plug in thing (looks like a hard drive) but you can plug it into a Apple iPhone or iPad box (thing you plug in wall) and if you turn it on with the remote it will turn on
does it come with the battery itself
Yes, some with battery
Mine doesn’t work anymore😭😭😭 how do i fix it???
Your remote control might hve ran out of battery. (I luv your pfp btw )
@@claireoh4038 oh i already threw it away and im pretty sure its not my remote but thx
:o this rlly helped me thx UwU
The UwU was kinda cringe ngl
Hi. Can someone help me? My fairylights always turn off once I turn it on. It's just a matter of seconds then it will be off. I can't use the timer. Thanks in advance
The same is happening to me. Can't figure how to fix it
I just found out that ot means the battery just needs to be changed. It worked fine after I put new batteries in.
My remote won't work now how do I get lights on
Use the single button on the plastic shroud that encloses the USB plug. Also try getting closer to the USB plug enclosure before the remote will work. Maybe the battery is a bit flat?
can anyone please tell me can these lights be controlled with just the remote or do you have to plug it into something then use the remote thanks x
yea you got to plug it in
you have to plug it in but for me I use a portable charger and it works just as good
What's ths life of the lights
20+ yrs at 8 hrs of use...these things last, they're LED so little wasted energy on heat
I have one with no control remote😭
Can you cut them?
No, you can't cut them.
Hi
Thank you!
What about the timer?
