LED Corks Turn Empty Bottles Into Beautiful Lamps

A winter of heavy drinking has probably left you with a mountain of empty wine bottles that can now easily be repurposed as stylish lamps with these LED Corks.

For many of us it will still be a few months before dinner parties on the back patio are feasible again—but there’s no reason you can’t start preparing now. A winter of heavy drinking has probably left you with a mountain of empty wine bottles that can now easily be repurposed as stylish lamps with these LED Corks.

Popping off the faux cork top reveals a standard USB connector for charging off AC adapters or your computer, and with a simple twist the bright white LED can be turned on or off. An hour’s charge gets you about two and a half hours of light, which is just enough time to serve dinner, enjoy some conversation, and then subtly hint that it’s time for your guests to head home.

LED-based spherical ornaments, traditional LED light strings, and commercial-grade GE Tetra Max LED products combine to efficiently light the US National Christmas tree located at President’s Park in Washington, DC.

US-National-Christmas-Tree-2013

GE Lighting has announced that for the 51st year its products have been used to light the US National Christmas tree located at President’s Park in Washington, DC. The design this year includes a garland made with 7-in. spherical, LED-based, warm-white ornaments combined with sugar-plum-based light stings and an LED-based, star-shaped light on top of the tree.

“We are very proud to be part of this great tradition and to be able to bring new technology into the design,” said Mary Beth Gotti, manager of the GE Lighting Institute and holiday lighting designer for the National Christmas Tree. “Each strand of GE LED holiday lights consumes up to 80% less energy than incandescent holiday lights and provides similar light that consumers love from traditional incandescent holiday lighting.”

The US National Park Foundation that hosts the tree said that the lighting design consumes a total of 5700W. The foundation said the use of LEDs delivers 80% energy savings overall and equates that to avoiding burning one ton of coal and a 5700-pound reduction in carbon emissions.

The ornaments were designed to enhance the aesthetics during the day, appearing as large snowflakes while enabling dynamic presentations at night. In total there are 265 ornaments on the tree and 225 LED light strings. GE designed the star on the top of the tree using the commercial-grade Tetra Max LED system that is generally used in professional signage applications and that provides a bright and sparkling tree topper.

You can see the lighting of the tree using LEDs online at the National Park Foundation website. In addition, UL is a sponsor of the tree and is operating a raffle for a National Christmas Tree Lighting poster.

Inspired by a classic holiday poem, “Twas the Night Before Christmas,” this year’s National Christmas Tree on display in front of the White House will feature GE’s new, energy smart® Sugar Plum light-emitting diode (LED) holiday lighting. This year marks the 51st year GE Lighting has designed and donated lighting for the tree, and tonight families will gather to celebrate this lighting ceremony, an annual holiday tradition.

Although the complete design of this year’s tree will remain secret until the unveiling tonight, once the switch is flipped on, the tree will feature 60,000 festive, LED lights, including Super-Bright Sugar Plum lights and warm white twinkling sphere ornaments. The Sugar Plum ENERGY STAR-qualified LED multi-color lights come in a matte finish, mirroring the look of traditional holiday lighting. Additionally, this year’s National Christmas Tree will glimmer brightly with its heirloom star-shaped topper with commercial-grade Tetra® MAX LED system that’s typically used in commercial signage.

Holiday Lighting décor tips

While the National Christmas Tree has been all-LED holiday lighting for the past four year, it is expected that two out of every five holiday lighting strands sold this holiday season will be LED. As you begin your own holiday decorating, our lighting design experts have put together a few helpful tips to keep in mind:

• Find inspiration. Every year, thousands of tree lighting ceremonies take place all over the country. Draw ideas from these magical designs for your own tree. The same Sugar Plum LED holiday lighting used for the National Christmas Tree can be found at most major retailers.

• Plan ahead. When considering the amount of lights needed for your own Christmas tree, plan on using an average of 100-150 lights per vertical foot of the tree.

• Mix lighting styles. To make holiday lighting stand out, pair strings of different sized lights together to add depth to décor. On the tree, set a base of white lights at the bottom and continue upward, adding strands of large bulbs and novelty lights for color and variety.

LED lights for the holidays

LED lights can be a great gift to the holiday decorator. Just in time for the peak decorating season, here’s a stocking full of tidbits about LED lights, compiled by our researchers and based on interviews with highly rated lighting and electrical experts and other sources.

LED lights can be a great gift to the holiday decorator. Even though they cost more than other types, they last longer, produce far less heat and use less energy.

The letters stand for “light-emitting diode” (but if you’re like some of my neighbors, they might more appropriately stand for “love elaborate displays.”) Unlike incandescent bulbs, LEDs are solid-state. There’s no filament that heats up with wasteful thermal radiation. Instead, light is released when electrical current excites electrons in the diode.

Just in time for the peak decorating season, here’s a stocking full of tidbits about LED lights, compiled by our researchers and based on interviews with highly rated lighting and electrical experts and other sources:

Plan to spend about four times more for a string of LED lights than for traditional bulbs. However, according to the U.S. Department of Energy, a typical strand of incandescent lights may last three years, while a comparable strand of LEDs can last 20 years or more.

An LED bulb generally consumes 75 percent less energy than its incandescent counterpart.

You can connect up to 25 strands of lights end-to-end and not worry that you’ll blow a fuse.

Size matters: Earlier versions of holiday light bulbs began with what are known as C6 bulbs, where the C stands for “cone-shaped” and the 6 refers to the diameter of the bulb in eighths of an inch. Modern versions of the C6 are strawberry-shaped bulbs often used indoors or draped around doorways. C7 and C9 bulbs are commonly hung along rooflines or wrapped around trees.

Popular LED holiday bulb types include the globe-shaped G series, or T, which are small tubes. Mini-tube LEDs are recommended for indoor Christmas trees.

Other types of LED lights that can make your holiday bright include rope lights, which are encased in flexible plastic tubing, and net lighting, which can be draped over a bush or tree, avoiding the usual tangled mess.

Colors of LED holiday lights are as varied as their incandescent counterparts. Newer versions can match the warm, candle-like hues of incandescents.

Half a million LED lights help Aussie man reclaim Christmas display record

Australian man takes Christmas light decorations to the extreme, breaking the world record with other half a million LED Christmas lights strung around his property.

Australian man takes Christmas light decorations to the extreme, breaking the world record with other half a million LED Christmas lights strung around his property, according to Digital Trends.

Half a Million LED Christmas Light Display Breaks World Record

David Richards’ yard is covered top to bottom in LED lights, completely obscuring his house from view (Digital Trends)

David Richards of Canberra, Australia has covered his property with so many lights his house is no longer visible. Taking over a month to set up, 502,156 lights were strung up around Mr. Richards and his family’s property. The spectacular display has earned them the prestige of most number of Christmas lights in the Guinness World Record book.

With half a million lights decorating his home, Mr. Richards’ electricity bill will likely skyrocket an additional US $2,300 (NT $68,000). However, aside from wanting to break a world record, the decorations are also in part to raise money for charity. The family was able to raise US $71,000 in 2011.

“I have always loved Christmas. Having the Christmas lights with the community coming in and sharing it is a time when you get to know people you probably should know better,” said Mr. Richards.
