Purchased the noma c9 lights rented a boom to install at the peak thinking they were reliable and could keep them up for years and sure enough 2-3 weeks in 2 strands dead (at the peak of course) and half strand dim almost dying. Canadian tire will only excercise warranty on the product and in order for me to get them down I will have to rent another boom ($450). So disappointed. Going to escalate this to the media because of this is a potential problem then They should have a disclaimer on the product How stupid of me to think they would be this reliable and stand behind their product. Anyone interested in approaching media with me let me know.
