QVC Garden TSV 30/07/24
It certainly looks like it. I hardly watch the channel nowadays because, with a few exceptions, it’s the same things and brands all the time. Even their “bargains” can usually be sourced more cheaply elsewhere.Have they run out of ideas?
When you see a full moon, it is probably me shining my torch at it!With all your lights and torches, they’ll be able to spot you from outer space.![]()
If you look closely, he always kept the circular bit OUT of the water, so more disinformation in the demo.I caught some of the TSV and Tom had apparently kept one of the light strands in a tank of water for hours and it still worked, so either the enclosed instructions are incorrect or the strand of lights wasn’t submerged for hours.
There’s only one way to test which one is correct.![]()
You expected him to have researched the product? You are totally unreasonable!!!Of course, I just HAD to get these, being torches lol.
On first examination, they look extremely well made and good quality.
BUT the sfixx man TOM stressed time and time again that they were fully waterproof and could be left out in all weathers.
This is what the instructions say - - -
KEEP AWAY FROM DAMP OR WET AREAS
Also there is a strange anomaly: You can have the main light on without the string lights, but not the other way around.
In practice, it would be far more desirable to have the string lights on without the very bright circular light distracting from them, they would look a lot better in the dark.
He always implies that it was him personally who designed and made them. I think he said it took him all year to design this one.You expected him to have researched the product? You are totally unreasonable!!!![]()
I am now thinking of returning them, I had planned to fix them permanently outdoors "in all weathers" as the demo said.Of course, I just HAD to get these, being torches lol.

Blame the vibes coming through the airwaves from IW (aka 'the Pete effect') - defined as (a) an inability to know your product/research your product and be able to give viewers accurate info. and (b) a proven ability to spout loads of BS.He always implies that it was him personally who designed and made them. I think he said it took him all year to design this one.
They would have done this for me, but I now have 4 non-working ink-jet printers, as the ink has dried out in the heads. So sending a label by post is a godsend to me. BTW the same thing has happened to OH's printer too.They don't have to post return labels. They emailed one to me and I just printed it out and stuck it on. All this posting by snail mail is a nonsense.
