Product Information

If you want to connect several strands together, don't be like Clark Griswold and put them all on a single outlet; instead, use several power outlets to accommodate the electrical load.

Recycling centres accept Christmas lights in their electrical items bins, and recycling points found in retail car parks often have electrical recycling bins.

I've got some fairy lights that are a couple of years old, got them from B and Q I think, they're in little bunches of red lights that look like berries. The National Fire Protection Association notes that home fire rates increase significantly during the winter, and holiday lighting plays a major role in this increased risk.

Christmas tree light bulbs come in many variations: different colours, screw or push in, LED or filament, with or without a fuse and whether they are manufacturer specific.If you have lights that are ten years old or older, consider replacing them with newer, more energy-efficient lights.

Some mention that it's a great value, while others say that the fuse lasted about 3 hours, it was a bit of a waste of money, and the quality is very poor.

These cords do not have the insulation and durability required to be used safely outside, especially if you live in a place with snowy or sleety winters. If you have a different type of base then you can consider removing the lamp base from your old lamp and fitting it to the new one. The reality is that the fuse bulb will not fail very quickly, or never at all, when only 1 bulb has failed but it will go open circuit if 2, 3 or more bulbs fail.

They mention that the bulb did not fit their lights, and the shorter wires made it difficult to insert into the bulb. It is important to keep your eyes peeled for failed lamps and get them replaced as soon as possible. A break in the actual wiring inside the insulation would be a lot more likely than a LED failing probably. Fuses prevent this from happening by opening the circuit (AKA blowing) whenever the current surpasses a safe level.Its likely they are all in parallel for christmas tree LED strings, and so one LED failure would leave the rest working, unless the failure is a short circuit, in which case the whole set would be affected, along with the controller/power supply.
