The brightness of a Pre-Lit Christmas tree is related to the Milliamp (mA) rating of the bulb and how much electricity is pushed through the light strand. A milliamp rating of 170 to 200 mA is considered to be a high quality light bulb. As the mA rating of a mini light increases, you will get a brighter tree but also a higher cost to operate the tree. The pre lighted Christmas trees from the big box retailers use 100-120 milliamp lights. They may look brighter, but the lights do not last as long and the brightness fades. If you are browsing for a Commercial location, it is important that you look for lights with a UL Listing as many people are exposed to the pre-lit tree in a commercial setting.
Prelit trees may have traditional mini bulb lights, LED lights, or fiber-optic lights, depending on what you are looking for. Larger trees usually contain traditional strands of bulb lights while smaller tabletop trees have fiber optic branches. Some more expensive trees come with energy-efficient LED lights.
Because the lights on a prelit Christmas tree are tied together it will be important to use the right method of storage for this type of tree. There are different options for pre-lit Christmas tree storage. Many of these allow for the user to store the tree in a box, or choosing a bags for storage. It is also important to consider the height of the tree for storage. Using the box that the Christmas tree came in is by far the most common option that is used for handling a Christmas tree, but space may become an issue. Given that, there are bags that can be used for storage of prelit trees. The bag can be strapped along a prelit tree. The tree branches are pulled upwards and the bag is placed under the tree. Using its handles, the bag is then pulled up over the tree, and the bag can be stored by hanging it from the handles. Call for live assistance today at 1-800-940-6123.
