Save Money With LED Christmas Lights

November 8th, 2007 - - Filled in: Reviews

The holidays are hands down my favorite time of year. In fact, I’m so passionate about it that I can’t stand it when department stores sell and/or decorate early. Despite the commercialism, I still look forward to seeing all of the decorated homes; it never gets old. This year, my friend, Eddie, will be drenching his house with over 10,000 lights…all of which are LEDs. Good thing. I can just see the smoke coming from his meter.

Traditional incandescent holiday lights consume 80% (mini-lights) to 99% (C9) more electricity than LED holiday lights. LED Xmas lights will also last for more than 50,000 hours v. only 2000 for incandescent lights. Not only will you save money on electricity but you will save money on replacement lights too. LED holiday lights also operate at only 1 degree above ambient temperature so they do not heat up and become a fire hazard like most incandescent lights. Finally, LED lights are encased in a nearly indestructible epoxy plastic bulb, which can withstand abuse unlike fragile glass bulbs. Go to HolidayLEDS.com for more info.

Actually Xmas LED lights have much more benefits than electricity (and money) savings. They are made of non toxic materials - they are ecological - they emit no UV, no IR (unless built so) and as you said there is no danger that the Xmas tree would burst into flames - they emit cold light. I have mine since 4 years and they have the most amazing color effects - I can control via DMX - I can use them whenever I like to create light effects and I can even keep them on forever!
