Holiday Lighting Tips From University Expert
Coral Morris of the University of Delaware shows cost mindful decorating tips for the holidays. Even 50 outdoor bulbs lit five hours daily add about 8 cents to the bill at 3 cents per kWh. She favors low wattage cooler and midget lamps, noting six watt bulbs versus seven plus for standard types, with a 25 light set using 150 watts and saving 32 watts.
