Home Depot Wants Your Old Christmas Lights
We know it's only early November, but signs of the winter holidays are everywhere around us, including lights, lights, lights! Which are a welcome sight in the northern reaches where it feels like we only get a few hours of natural light a day. However, a whole lot of those lights are highly

Older Christmas lights are highly inefficient, adding significantly to your energy bill, and they pose some electrical safety risks.

*They're a cinch to program and control, for those setting up epic holiday light displays.
*They have a very long shelf life -- buy LED lights today, and you won't be replacing them every few years as with conventional lights.
*LED lights are weatherproof, letting you use them indoors and out with minimal risks; although you should make sure you are using an outlet approved for outdoor electrical use!
*Like conventional holiday lights, they come in a range of colors and styles, including strands, nets, snowflakes, and more.
*Costwise, LEDs actually aren't more expensive than conventional lights, and in some cases actually clock in cheaper. A whole lot cheaper, in fact, if you take advantages of deals like this one offered by Home Depot!
We think these are some pretty solid reasons to make the switch, if you haven't already -- and they also make LED lights designed for use in menorahs, incidentally. You'll save money, reduce your energy consumption, and enjoy a safer home this holiday season with LED lights.
