Save Money by Switching to Modern LED Holiday Lights

Shining a New Light on the Holidays

With the holiday season fast approaching, now is the time to consider switching out your old incandescent holiday lights for modern light-emitting diode (LED) lights. LED technology has been around for years as electronic indicators and easily adjustable signs. However, as higher output LEDs develop, they are being used more frequently in conventional lighting applications as well. From automotive headlights to mobile flashlights, more lighting is beginning to use LED lighting including holiday lights, as LED lights become more assimilated into society.

LEDs Are More Energy Efficient

When compared to old-fashioned incandescent lights, LED Lights are much more energy-efficient. While the old lights are somewhat brighter, LED Lights consume much less electricity. This can amount to actual savings. Most holiday incandescent lights use between 12 to 105 kilowatt hours of electricity, but comparable sized LED light strings use between 1 and 3 kilowatt hours. In real terms this means that by changing to LED lights, you can potentially save between $ 1 and $ 11 on your electricity bill for every month that your lights are turned on this holiday season.

LEDs Are More Durable

Beyond the savings on your electric bill, LED lights can also save you money because they are much more durable and do not have to be replaced as frequently as incandescent holiday lights. Unlike incandescent lights that create considerable heat (perhaps even dangerous amounts), LED lights stay far cooler, and that's why they can be enclosed in plastic instead of glass. The result is LED lights being more durable and nowhere near as fragile. Similarly, LED lights also burn much longer than incandescent lights. Most incandescent light bulb strings lose one bulb after about 1,000 hours of use, but LED lights tested by Consumer Reports managed over 4,000 hours of use before burning out.

LEDs Are Also Safer

In that LED holiday lights burn at a much cooler temperature than incandescent ones, they also represent much less of a fire risk. There have been a few cases of LED light recalls due to potential fire threats, but this had more to do with the wiring than the lights themselves. Therefore, making sure the LED lights you purchase have been tested is important as well as certification by a trusted testing laboratory, such as Underwriters Laboratories (UL) or Intertek (ETL). That being said, all the major insurance companies and product testers agree that LED lights represent much less of a fire risk than incandescent holiday lights.

Look for Incentive Programs

The current trend toward greater energy efficiency has also resulted in two types of incentives meant to encourage you to buy LED holiday lights and both may save you even more money. The first type of incentive is getting offered by some retailers, like Home Depot. Incentives offer discounts to people that buy LED holiday lights and allows stores to capitalize on the trend by actively supporting energy efficient options. Similarly, some communities that have aggressively taken on energy efficiency are also offering incentives. For example, in Anaheim, California, people who purchase LED holiday lights receive a free gift card to other businesses (Starbucks, Borders, etc.) as an incentive initiated by a local public utilities administration.
