Light Up the Holidays With LED Lights

Tis the season for Lampoon-style, bright as the sun, glorious Christmas lights that bring exorbitant electricity bills and surprisingly haven't caused blackouts yet.

But wait, new LED Christmas light strands use 90% less electricity than traditional tungsten lights, supposedly last much longer and the whole strand isn't blown if one bulb goes down. Some even have lifetime warranties.

Even Manhattan's Rockefeller Center is lighting its Christmas tree with LED lights that run on solar power.

This is a failsafe way to get on the big guy's nice list this year.
