Tip of the Month
HOLIDAY DECORATING
Not only do LED holiday lights consume less electricity, they also have the following advantages:
Safer: LEDs are much cooler than incandescent lights, reducing the risk of combustion or burnt fingers.
Sturdier: LEDs are made with epoxy lenses, not glass, and are much more resistant to breakage.
Longer lasting: The same LED string could still be in use 40 holiday seasons from now.
