Yay, Idaho! Cheapest electricity in the country. It's a state run by smart people.

The busybodies are hard at work this Christmas season stealing all the joy out of it. Addy implies the nation would be far better off and happier if nobody put up lights and saved $5.

Does anybody care if your Christmas lights will cost you $3 to $15 to run for the entire Christmas season?

Addy Bink would be a happier person if the Grinch stole her lights and saved her that $5.

My electric bill will double- and i don’t care.

I don’t do the Clark Griswold thing, but i’m close, and everyone loves it

a display season of six hours a day for a month, using a strand of mini LED lights will cost you about 60 cents.

Seriously? The inflation on a single hamburger is more than that.

[P.O.E.]

What about bubble lights?

[Vermont Lt]

About $5 . Just LED lights on a tree that are on for 5 hours or so a day.

We put the lights up around the house because of that thing called “Christmas spirit”, which the left doesn’t have.
Some displays are more extravagant than others. People have the right to put the lights up and don’t mind the slight extra expense. Grinches have the right to not put them up.

[sauropod]

Not nearly enough. Don’t have anywheres enough lights!

[Tell It Right]

Here in Alabama for the past 4 months we've been charged 14¢/kWh (after subtracting flat monthly fees, but accounting for rate riders and tax). Which is up 6% from the 13.4¢/kWh in the prior October in 2022, which was up 11.7¢/kWh in October 2021.

It ain't the Christmas lights adding to the bill. It's Joseph Robinette Stalin Biden!

I don’t care. Christmas tree lights makes the wife’s clothes fall off.

[Sicon]

However much a little more than 5,000 incandescent mini-bulbs, burning 5 hours a night, adds to it.

This is liberalism at its finest. No matter how small, they hate anything that gives us enjoyment and bitch about it. We’re putting up more lights and blowups right now.

They ran incessant advertising campaigns to browbeat millions into throwing away perfectly good, quality USA made appliances, in order to purchase “energy star” compliant appliances that in all too many instances are inferior in both function and durability. The alleged electrical “savings” are usually a rounding error at best, adding up to trivial sums and many people borrow money on credit/interest to buy them.

I’ve a nice set of the old school Norma C9 outdoor lights. They do draw more juice. So what? I’m the one paying the electric bill.

The miniatures, LED and similar are “colder” in more ways than one, visually they aren’t as nice as C7 and C9 bulbs. They are pretty.

How much are your holiday lights adding to your electric bill?

None of your f'n business, watermelon bastards !

[GingisK]

None. We don’t put those stupid things up.

[joma89]

I do not know but I know coal was burned to keep them on.
