LED and Incandescent Christmas Lights

Although LED and bright string lights come in many colors and bulb shapes, they have a few important differences.

Incandescent Lights

Are longer lasting; some LEDs are rated up to 100,000 hours
Burn at a lower temperature
Come in both warm- and cool-glow varieties

Types of Christmas Lights

Mini String Lights

Mini-string lights have small bulbs and have remained popular for the past few decades.

Wide-Angle LED Mini Lights

Wide-angle LED mini-lights have low-profile, conical bulbs that give off more light than some varieties and blend seamlessly into their surroundings when not in use.

Large-Bulb Lights

Large-bulb lights (C5, C7, C9, G40, and G50) create visual impact and lend a retro feel.

Battery-Operated Lights

Battery-Operated Lights Battery-operated Christmas decorations are incredible for displays that aren’t near a power font or are located where strings could be dangerous.
