LED Holiday Lights

Have you noticed that more and more people are decorating with holiday lights throughout the year? This can add to your monthly energy bills, especially as electricity rates climb.

If it’s time to replace your old, tangled string of holiday lights, you should consider the newer LED lighting technology. While they cost more than standard lighting, LED (light emitting diodes) lights use less energy, have a longer service life and produce very little heat. They are available in a growing number of colors and styles, including mini-ice, ball-shaped and candle shaped bulbs.

Several utilities, including the Long Island Power Authority, have offered rebate coupons towards the purchase of new LED lights for each string of old lights that are turned in. This is a program that CWLP may want to replicate as part of its growing mix of incentives for customers to purchase energy efficient appliances and equipment.

I like your blog, this post is really good, but please vary your topics, it will broad your readership.

I’m a person, who knows what she wants. I’m not the one who has a lot of free time to write comments here and discuss stupid and silly news, like you do. It’s so funny that you all take it seriously, start thinking about it and so on. I would never spend my time on such stupidity. I just want to say that there’s a real word, where you can spread rumors and argue. Why are you doing this online? You look so funny!
