The current growing interest in energy conservation and consumer awareness is bringing LED lights and lighted décor to the forefront. A new energy law just approved by Congress mandates that the incandescent bulb be phased off the U.S market beginning in 2012. Moving to more efficient lighting is one of the most cost efficient ways for our nation to reduce electricity use and greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global warming. In fact, this change will lower consumer’s utility bills considering ninety percent of the energy burned by an incandescent bulb is wasted as heat.
Cool White LED’s are becoming trendier
Consumers are starting to appreciate the charm of the brighter cleaner white since the elimination of blue tones from the white LEDs. This new white perfectly complements snowy winter scenes, adding a higher level of elegance not achieved with warmer, yellow hued incandescent lighting.
Rainbow of Colors
Why settle for one color when you can have many? Holiday Creation’s LED Colorwave collection is designed so that each individual lamp fades gradually through the intermediary colors as it changes from one color to the next producing a magical lighting effect. Even better is this year’s addition of an eight function controller used to choreograph cascading colors in multiple strings.
