Christmas light wattage

Published by Statista Research Department, Dec 13, 2011
This statistic represents the Christmas light wattage for standard U.S. household circuits, by Christmas light type. A standard U.S. household circuit has 15 amperes, 120 volts and 1440 watts. While commercial mini light strings with 50 lights require 20.4 watts, LED mini-light strings - despite having 70 lights - only require 4.8 watts, presenting Americans who want to blind their neighbours with their Christmas decorations with a more energy efficient and brighter result.
