Default and it begins (pic)

After e3NiNe's post, I just had to get some for the crizzib. They were $15 for a box of 70 count (9.5 feet) and I bought all they had left in blue. The only other choice I saw for exterior icicles were White but they only had 1 left. So I bought 5 boxes which was closed to $80. h:

I'm going to my gf's xmas party tonight so I'll most likely put these up tomorrow.



Quick Preview. I got to go back up and straighten some out, I'll have to do that in the morning.

These use a fraction of energy compared to normal lights. I believe the box said like 4.8watts compared to 40.8 watts used by your traditional xmas lights. I'm definitely dreading taking them down though.

I got it last year for 50% off after the holidays. I think I'm going to get more stuff next year for that too. I want to start accumulating for a house.

LED xmas lights for the WIIIIIIIIIIIN!

I have 2 strands up right now and plan on getting more.

It's so great. Leave em up and on all day and they use like a penny's worth of power and don't get hot either. LED's are the future.
