The amount of electricity used by Christmas lights can vary depending on the type and number of lights used. A single string of 100 mini Christmas lights, for example, can use up to 1,000 watts of electricity. However, if the lights are LED, they will typically use less electricity. The wattage of LED lights can vary depending on the color and brightness of the lights. It's important to consider the energy efficiency of your Christmas lights to save on electricity costs.
