About LED Christmas Light Batteries

LED Christmas light batteries allow you to hang strings of LED Christmas lights virtually anywhere. Because LEDs are low-heat bulbs with a minimal risk of fire, battery-powered LED lights are favored for Christmas crafts using paper.

Function

LED light batteries enable the lights to run on battery power instead of requiring a cord and socket setup.

Benefits

LED Christmas lights powered by batteries are versatile; use them in crafts, areas far from sockets or around wreaths. Battery-operated incandescent lights last only a short time. LEDs, which use only a tenth of the power of incandescent lights, are the more cost-effective choice.

Battery Life

Batteries supplying power to LED Christmas lights last far longer than those powering incandescent light strings--up to 30 hours per charge for rechargeable batteries and even longer for single-use disposable batteries.

Features

LED Christmas light batteries are often regular AA batteries, located in a box at the end of the strand.

Consideration

LED bulbs don't "burn out" like incandescent bulbs; they usually dim over time. Because dimming could appear to be a low battery, you might fruitlessly change out the battery instead of replacing the bulb.
