Do you wrap your house in electricity suckers to increase that jolly feeling in your tummy?  Having 100, 5 watt Xmas lights light up on your home for 6 hours a day, for the holiday season, can consume around 207 KwH according to GoCompare.  With the Average US Household consuming around 50 KwH per day, that is an extra 4 days of electricity per year.

So ask yourself, is it really worth it?  Some would say it is, so the solution is just to use better lights.  Rather than going to the attic to get your 50 year old energy suckers, head to the store and pick up some energy efficient LED Xmas lights.

Think about it, Santa doesn’t even use lights on his sleigh.  He wouldn’t even use a flashlight on a foggy night.  He is so energy efficient, he used an animal with a red nose to get the job done.  So if you want your stocking to be full this year, you best think LED.
