02 September 24 - Does Installing Christmas Lights Increase My Power Bill?

Yes, installing Christmas lights can increase your power bill, but the impact varies depending on the type and number of lights used:

  1. Traditional Incandescent Lights: These use more energy and can significantly increase your electricity costs, especially if you have many lights or keep them on for extended periods.

  2. LED Lights: LED Christmas lights are much more energy-efficient, using up to 80-90% less electricity than traditional incandescent bulbs. They have a minimal impact on your power bill, making them a popular choice for homeowners looking to decorate without a big jump in energy costs.

To minimize the impact on your power bill, Lit Nights installs LED lights, sets timers to control when your lights are on and off when not needed.
