Unsung Heroes: Christmas Light Stringers

[@rs12official]

The problem with the complete C9 and C7 light sets sold in stores is they typically only use 20 gauge wire, which means they can’t handle much current and cap out at around 60-75 incandescent bulbs. With the stringers you buy separately, they typically use 18 gauge wire, so they can handle a lot more lights and you can have long stretches of lights without extension cords everywhere.
