Absolutely can NOT go outdoors

I got these lights because I thought they would make excellent Christmas decorations. They do. However, the second night they were out, it rained. The lights started doing crazy patterns and the control box would not respond to different positions on the switch. Eventually that dried out and I put it in a plastic bag tied off like another reviewer suggested. Then over the next few days, lights started failing. When I removed them from my bushes, it's easy to see why. Look at the photos...the wiring actually RUSTED! You can see the brown stains. When I came to return the lights, I saw they are listed as indoor. However, the photo associated with this product also shows them on a bush OUTSIDE and the description reads: "Indoor and outdoor decorations, the wonderful Christmas light illuminate during night, create a warm and charming atmosphere to your gardens, patio, lawn, porch, gate, yard, wedding, party etc." That description and photo are wrong. Do not put these lights outside, they will stop working properly almost immediately as soon as they get wet. I'm sending mine back.
