And they’re incandescent, not LED!

    Incandescent sucks though, they use 10x the power for less light output and have a lifespan that’s a fraction as well. Just get the color temperature you prefer in an LED and you’ll almost never have to replace them and you’ll have a lower power bill too

    I forgot to write Christmas string lights - these are MUCH warmer than the LEDs, much more nostalgic in appearance. I watched too much Technology Connections about this and wanted to replace the decor

    Wait why don’t you want LED? Visual thing or other reasons?

    Mean I know I keep buying LEDs for the bathroom for my gf to tell me they’re too bright (waiting on the next set currently only tried a couple) but the time range on an incandescent is so low in comparison.

    I’m mostly curious why you prefer something with more power draw for a shorter lifespan. I sort of assume I’m missing a piece, not knocking your preference or purchases and all. Hell if I have all the pieces and that’s fine for you, you do you no ill intentions meant.
