“This is Kansas” from our 2010 Christmas Light Show. Over 10,000 LED Christmas Lights programmed with Light O’Rama S2 Software and powered by the mighty D-Light.us hardware control boards. This year’s show is 210 channels and has over 20 minutes of lights and sounds! For more information, check out www.lightuplawrence.net

Due to the fact that WMG cannot resolve their dispute with Google, all TSO and Claude de Bussy songs are hosted elsewhere. Get it together WMG…
These commercial quality Christmas lights are available in 10 metre lengths with 100 bulbs. They come in a box of 2 x 5 metre segments offering more flexibility. These Chistmas lights are LED low wattage making them great for the environment and your pocket! Due to the low energy consumption you can connect these Christmas lights together up to 20 boxes, 200 metres. They are extremely robust allowing for use in all weather conditions.
This family has put up this light show for sevral years. They use the money they get for donations for a local organization. If you watch the hole thing ( 10 ) minutes long you will here the little boy talking about the facts. It took 3 months to set up. 70 thousand led lights, and miles of wire. Just watch the hole thing. Some parts are blurry because of all the lights but a majority is a clear picture. Make sure your volume is up because the lights blink with the music.
This is our 2010 Christmas display at our house, using 65,000 eco-friendly LEDs, which draw only 1/5 of the power of regular Christmas lights. This video shows 144 channels of Light-O-Rama lighting controllers. We transmit the songs wirelessly to your car radio so you can watch our lights dance to the music from your car. We hire a dozen students and unemployed people to help put it up and tear it down. Since our display attracts a lot of people, we also collect food and money for local food banks, including one at our church.
What a great way to lighten up the holiday season with LED net lights. LED net lights, with LEDs interwoven in a uniform net/ mesh design, provide a simple uniform decoration. LED net lights provide an easy way to decorate your Christmas tree, simply by placing the LED net lights on top of the Christmas tree. LED net lights can be used to decorate walls, windows, staircase or anywhere you want to decorate with a uniform net/ mesh design.

Typically Christmas lights plug into the wall (120v), but I would think that LEDs would be operating on a much lower voltage, such as that of consumer electronics devices, and that there is some kind of AC-to-DC adapter employed. Is that correct, and if so, what is the actual voltage of most LED bulbs? Will the LEDs work if you connected them to a car battery without an AC-to-DC adapter?
LEDs are usually supplied with DC voltage, so a voltage rectifier can be used to convert AC to DC. Car batteries (actually, all batteries) produce DC voltage.
Standard LED’s are designed to operate at very low voltages, have a forward drop of about 2 volts (±0.2) and can take up to 20mA before they start getting damaged. As I said, those are the standard LEDs. You can always lookup the datasheets for specific LED models.
Keep in mind that Ohm’s law (Voltage = Current x Resistance) doesn’t apply for LEDs since they are semiconductors.
If you just plug in a LED to your car battery you will end up burning it since LEDs have a resistance close to zero, which allows a high current to flow. Thus, a resistor must be used in series with the LED. The value of the resistor really depends on the type of LED that you use and the way you connect it to other LEDs (series, parallel, both).
