Incandescent VS. LED Christmas Lights

If you are looking for something will replace your traditional Christmas lights with the same color and style but with all the energy savings and benefits of LED lights, we have what you are looking for. We offer a selection LED light strings, such as mini lights, globe lights, C7 and C9 lights and more, in a color called "Warm White" that has the exact same glow of traditional Christmas lights, but without the hassle or high energy costs.

Here you will find a comparison of the two style of lights we have been talking about. We only used these selections as an example to show you some of the differences you will find in LED and incandescent Christmas lights.

  • LED craft lights use 2.4 watts of power, while mini craft lights use 9.6 watts of power.
  • LED light strings generate no heat.
  • LED craft sets have bulbs that are molded into the socket, there is no risk of them twisting or coming out. 
  • LED craft Christmas lights have a 24" lead and incandescent craft lights have a 24" or 36". 
  • LED Christmas light sets are more expensive up front but will cost less over time.
  • LED lights are made with high grade plastic that will not break unlike the glass mini lights.
We hope this helps you figure out what light strings are best for you.
