LED lights use an average of 90% less energy than mini-incandescent lights, and can use only .6% of the
energy draw of large incandescent bulbs (C9). So using LED holiday lights can significantly reduce the
amount of energy you have to pay for during the holiday season. And that can be helpful when you’re
trying to reduce your expenses, especially with all the other costs you have during the holidays.
The following chart compares the energy usage and operating cost of LED holiday lights to both mini and
large incandescent holiday lights in your home.
