I went out to replace all my christmas lights on my 9.5 foot tree. When I was in the store (Lowes) the people working there began putting out a new display of lights, LED Christmas Lights.

Something inside me went nuts. I bought 25 boxes of 70 lights. That is 1750 Lights on a 9.5 foot christmas tree.

Pics after it is all done, I am still placing the lights. The Green, Blue, and Red LEDs are really bright, and the yellow and orange ones are so-so bright.

Are you the same guy who put 1,000 LEDs in his Xbox case? :Q

I know how you feel. I figured out I was a geek when I bought 3 bundles of heroin just because it had the word "'tec" stamped on the glassine bags.

Actually LED's run cooler and use less power than their midget incandescent counterparts. ;)

Once emitters equal (and surpass) CRI and efficacy of reef lamps (Iwasaki/Venture Metal Halide) used it will become a reality.
