eufy Permanent Outdoor Lights S4 review – Have lights ready for every season

EPS4 01

REVIEW – I’ve put up some lights each holiday, but usually a string or two, and usually within reach of a normal step ladder. Entering the fall season, I usually see plenty of handyman signs advertising light installations (near bigger HOA neighborhoods), but decidedly less this year for some reason.

Enbrighten Vibe Eternity Landscape Lights review

Enbrighten Lights 2 1

REVIEW—During the winter, the beautiful garden at the front of our home that my wife designed and continues to improve is bare and unattractive.
