Remember? Hell, I should-I just got done stringing them up on the tree this morning.
I don't like the little lights. Christmas lights should be large, hot, and glaringly orange or blue or whatever. |

Aren't those what they call C-7 lites these days?

C-9 are the bigger ones IIRC.

Those are the smaller size of the big ones. The real burners are the C-9s! We had an outdoor tree full of them many years ago. Took a single 15amp circuit for just that one tree. The extension cord would melt into the snow! |

My Grandmother had those on her tree every year until she passed on. From the time I was a baby through my mid twenties.

I always liked the ones that bubbled in the little tubes when they got hot. Them were cool.

Hell, my kid remembers those light strings.
Damn  When he was four I caught him with a pocket full from the neighbors. Made him go over and apologize, wound up getting drunk with a retired NAVY guy. GM |
