LEDs don’t draw much at all. It’s the incandescents that suck the juice.

But I see the LEDs as kinda cold......where the incandescents are warmer and more astetically pleasing to the eye.

But I do neither...3 projection light units, a couple of extension cords and a timer and I call it good.

No doubt, the warm mini led's are usable.

This! One hundred percent!

I bought all new lights for my family room Christmas Tree this year and went with LEDs and I don't like them at all. Like you said, cold. No glow. They're very sharp and harsh.

We have a smaller tree in the living room with white incandescent bulbs and I like these a lot more. They have a glow, an aura, that fills the room. Much more pleasing.

LEDs might save money and they have their applications but not for Christmas lights.
