Gotta get the commercial screw in c9 s that have full wave rectifier and SMD leds inside. That’s the only way to do LED and look like incandescent. Everything else is utter crap. Especially the fake...

I agree with the multicolored mini lights that something is off with them especially the cheaper ones but the white leds look great now.

I have identical light strands. The led strand uses 21w and the incandescent uses over 400w!

One thing I would recommend.. if they'll let you, try plugging the lights in at the store when you pick them up :) .. or if you're having them shipped...

I'm ok with the $100 bump in my power bill for incandescent glow. LED ain't it.

A lot of those kits are either older kits or the cheaper brands. Those rectify voltage at a lower frequency in order to save money or are all that was available when led lights came out. I have had a...

I totally get that but I have all electric heat, unfortunately, so adding some heat to the room at around the same cost as the baseboards is a non-issue for us. With that said we just bought LEDs to...

Actually, it's not hard to see something like an LED cycling at 60Hz. That's actually a fairly low frequency and he's right, most of these LED strings are made with the downright cheapest, simplest...

For those using incandescent lights, enjoy climbing a ladder frequently to replace burnt-out bulbs.
I'll stick with LED, which lasts much longer.

I don’t really think this is what you’re seeing. It’s really hard to see something cycling 60 times per second (US AC line is 60Hz). Which is a good thing because that’s probably what your monitor...

The incandescent ones are good if you need to protect small citrus trees from cold damage.

Can confirm. Got some multicolor mini led strands from Lowes, and the flickering makes them unusable for any indoor application where you'll be looking at them frequently. Feels so cheap and harsh to...

Most of the LED items are usually sold out by the time it reaches 75% off. After waiting for the past 4 years, its best to take the 50% off. This also may vary based on location, but in general i...

These clearance sales are the only way for LEDs to make sense price-wise and I don't get it. The price of household LED light bulbs have come down dramatically over the years, yet unless you get them...
