Well I decided to go green for Christmas. I just purchased quite a few strings of c7 led lights for the tree. My wife and kids always liked the c7 size bulbs and we did use the 5w cool bulbs. A few years ago I made a special heavy duty cord with a switch and fuse in line. I first had a 7.5A fuse and a few years ago it blew so I had to upgrade to a 10A. My daughter had about 150 lights on the tree. When it was on you could feel the heat from all of the lights. After that I did restrict her on the number of lights. The led lights that I just purchased use 6 watts for 26 bulbs. So she can place 130 lights that will use the power of six old style bulbs. I also plan to upgrade the rope lights that they use outside. Please visit my home page; it is motivational, inspirational and humorous with many resources for the blind. http://www.geocities.com/lenny_mchugh/ Lenny
