Re: Forever Bright 2003
I had my order which I placed on 10/27 just cancelled due to no stock by brite-lite.com. GAK.
My wife found some LED lights at Target, but they are not Forever Bright. They'll have to do.
The lights are 2V LEDs and are 60 to a string. Two of the strings are 120 lights, but there is a crossover so that the first half and the second half are two separate series strings (not alternated).
They're not as bright as an Arc AAA <smile>. I hope they're bright enough.
Oh, and no blues.
I got one string of green "trees" and one string of red "candy canes" the candy canes have red LEDs and are painted red and white. These unicolor strings are 120 lights each for I think $12.99.
I also got, for $7.99 each two 60-light strings. One is 1 cm marbles the other are stars. No blues, but multi-colors. red orange green something like that.
Each 60 light string is drawing 40mA according to the spec sheet AND they certainly flicker.
I calculated that at 10 cents per kWh, running them 24/7 will cost me 7 cents per day for the six 60-LED segments, or a bit over $3 for the 45 days I'll probably run them.
Cheers,
Richard
