2-Sentence Energy Story: The Bright Lights

Dave's dazzling holiday display is the envy of his neighbors, but is there a dark side to those bright lights?

Dave's dazzling holiday lighting display lit up the entire block, making him the envy of his neighbors.

A few weeks later, Dave got his energy bill.

So, the story goes... Dave's tried and true light strands may have looked great, but leaving those inefficient incandescent bulbs running for weeks used a sleigh-load of energy. Next year, switching to high-efficiency LEDs and using a timer will help Dave have a bright and merry season without the post holiday letdown.

The end.
