Check for defects before you put it up

When I received this product the first thing I did was plug it in to make sure it lit up and it did, but I did not check every bulb because it was still rubberbanded together. The flag looks awesome on our balcony and looks even better from below, but we did have a strand of lights out. It was a pain to put it up with zip ties just to see that a strand of lights were out. Attached are pictures that show what I believe to be the reason for the malfunctioning strand (manufacturing issue). We have another on its way, I just wish I would only have to put one of these up with the 20 zip ties we used.
