LED vs. Incandescent Lighting

What is the difference between LED & incandescent lights?

LED – “Lighting Emitting Diode”

• Uses 1/10th the energy consumption compared to standard incandescent mini light bulbs. (100 LED bulbs requires 50watts of electricity per hour)
• Has a bulb life of 10,000 plus continuous hours
• The bulbs are cool to touch and keeps lighting safe to use indoor and out
• The bulbs have an epoxy lens and are virtually indestructible
• 20 strands of 70-100 lights can be connected end to end without over loading the fuses in the strands
• If a bulb goes out, the other bulbs will stay lit due to parallel wiring

Incandescent – conventional holiday lights

• 100 incandescent bulbs requires 500 watts of electricity per hour
• Has a bulb life of 3,000 hours
• The bulbs tend to get warm after long periods of time
• The bulbs have a glass lens and can break upon impact
• 6 strands of 100 lights can be connected end to end without over loading the fuses in the strands
• If a bulb goes out, you must locate the bulb and replace it. It may also create the other bulbs in the line to go out as well.
