How much does that affect your light bill?


a 100 light LED strand pulls around 0.05amps
1 amp running 24/7 for 4 weeks is about $14, assuming 10 cents a kilowatt hr. If you have 20 strands of lights, that's just 1 amp. 20 strands of 100 lights is a good bit, about 450ft of lights.

The old C9 lights, just 25 of them, pulled 4amps a strand. The C9 LED lights pull 0.06amps.

Inflatables with LED lights in them run anywhere from .6 to 1.5 amps on average, depending on their size.
