The SHPMXUPW red 8.5-inch light-up star tree topper is a shatterproof, faux-mercury glitter ornament with 20 LEDs, remote control, four brightness levels, eight light modes and programmable timers for effortless holiday sparkle.

Add a polished, glowing crown to your holiday tree with this electric star topper. Finished in a faux mercury glitter that stays put, the red star combines a vintage glass look with modern LED performance. It plugs in with a long USB cord for flexible placement, offers a full remote for lighting and timer control, and is built from durable plastic so it survives storage and seasons without shattering.

How does the lighting control make decorating easier?

Lighting is adjustable from the comfort of the sofa using the included remote. Choose among four brightness levels and eight distinct lighting behaviors to match your tree’s scale and your festive mood.

• Remote-operated brightness: subtle to bold illumination.
• Eight modes: seven flashing patterns plus a steady-on option.
• 20 warm LED bulbs that create a consistent sparkle across the star.
• Simple buttons for quick scene changes during gatherings.

What timer options are available and how do they save energy?

The star includes four timer presets to automate nightly lighting and reduce energy waste. Timers let you set multi-hour on/off cycles so the topper lights when you want it and powers down when you don’t.

• 4H mode: on 4 hours, off 20 hours — ideal for short evening displays.
• 6H mode: on 6 hours, off 18 hours — for longer nightly lighting.
• 8H mode: on 8 hours, off 16 hours — good for daytime-away households.
• Custom 6639 cycle: unique 6h/6h/3h/9h pattern across 24 hours for varied schedules.

Is the finish durable and family-friendly?

The red star uses a faux mercury glitter surface and sturdy plastic construction so you get the sparkle of glass without the fragility. The glitter is treated to remain on the piece, cutting down on loose glitter mess around the tree.

• Faux mercury glitter gives a vintage reflective look without glass.
• Shatterproof plastic resists cracks and drops during setup and storage.
• Glitter adheres to the topper to reduce fallout and cleanup.
• Lightweight design won’t tip smaller trees when placed on top.

How does power and placement work with the cord and plug?

The star runs on USB power with a long 9.84-foot cord that allows flexible routing and outlet access around your tree. Note that the USB power adapter is not supplied, so pair the cord with any standard USB power brick or a smart plug for timed control.

• 9.84-foot USB cable for flexible outlet placement or concealment.
• Compatible with common USB adapters, power banks, or smart plugs.
• Plug-in design ensures steady power for all light modes and timers.
• Lightweight cord routing keeps cables tidy when mounted on the tree top.
