Patio & Awning lights?

Hi Everyone,

It's been awhile since I have posted up a thread. I'm in the market for some string lights to hang from my awning. The awning on my 19 is 12ft long. Can anyone recommend a good brand? I prefer more of a dimmed setting, would LED be to bright? Also will be looking for clips to hang the lights from. I'm not looking to break the bank here, but would hate to waste a few dollars on some junk too. Thanks.

Simple awning loops

I use 1/4 inch OD nylon standoffs in my awning rail with a nylon twine loop through it to support lights. They don't need to be removed from the awning when you roll it up!

I've used an assortment of ways to suspend things from the track but that's a nice simple yet strong way of doing it.
