If you like the vintage look but don't like the heat, check out Tru-Tone Christmas lights. They are LED but you can't tell the difference. I'm a vintage Christmas light geek and they're the only LEDs I like. Good to see you lighting up Charlotte. I miss that area. I'm in Atlanta and do my best to light it up for Christmas.

Did that 8 light set use the C7 bulbs? I just bought an 8 light Candolior and c7s don't fit. I may see about having the sockets changed if I could so it can take the c7s.

It's possibly a C6 light- I have one of those that I did in last year's video- the problem with them is they don't have the redundant wiring- so if ALL the bulbs don't work, none of them light up. You probably can't change the sockets since they're usually glued in- and the wiring is attached there- the best thing is to try buying some C6 bulbs, research examples first, and if they don't work- then like me you also have your new Christmas Boat Anchor!

@@superadventure6297 What if I got adaptors for the sockets?

[@superadventure6297]

@@BigRedSoxFan Well, you can only use adapters to go down a size, not up. C7 bulbs are going to be bigger, so you can't really use an adapter I don't think- but I can't say 100% without a photo; in either case, the smaller bulbs are definitely available through eBay and similar; the hard part is insuring they are all functional-

@@superadventure6297 IDk I seen adaptors that can go bigger but I'll find out as I"ll go to an Ace store but I think I seen some where you can adapt to go bigger.

@@BigRedSoxFan I don't think they make a c6 to c7 socket adapter, because c6 bulbs and sockets are wired in series, including your candolier. C7 bulbs and sockets are wired in parallel. If you put c7s in yours, they would be so dim you couldn't see anything. Likewise if you hooked 1 c6 bulb into direct 120v power it would pop.
