Perks of Using Pre-Lit Christmas Trees These trees provide a great deal of light without having to spend a lot on traditional ornaments. These devices have a long service life and can last for years.

The tree can be well made, the lights can be high quality, and the design is perfect, but an incandescent bulb is still only going to burn for about 3000 hours. Eventually, the bulbs will burn out. In my case, the tree started losing light strands on the third year I set it up.

50,000 hours to 200,000 hours Depending on the LED, the bulb may last from 50,000 hours to 200,000 hours as compared to the 3,000 hours of an incandescent light. LEDs are also more durable and do not burn out, thus lasting longer than incadescents.
