What kind of lights do you use on a palm tree?

• <div><p>String LED lights are the best lights to use on a palm tree, as they’re long-lasting, energy-efficient, and won’t go out if a single bulb stops working.</p></div>

What are the best types of Christmas lights for a roof?

• <div><p>When it comes to bang for your buck, LED lights are the clear winner for Christmas lights. While these will cost more upfront, they’ll last you for many holidays to come—far longer than your basic halogen bulbs. Along with that, they also save you big on energy costs throughout the season.</p></div>

Q: How much does professional Christmas light installation cost?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-christmas-light-installation-cost.htm#cost-factors">cost of professional Christmas light installation</a> is <b>$430</b> on average, but it can range from <b>$100</b> for basic projectors to <b>$1,200</b> or more for an extensive holiday light installation. The overall price also depends on the size of your home and any other location where you&rsquo;ll be adding lighting. For instance, a small, one-story home typically costs between <b>$250 and $600</b> for light installation, but a 4,000-foot multi-story home costs significantly more, ranging from <b>$500 to $1,800</b>. </p></div>

Q: How many lights do I need for a 7-foot tree?

• <div><p>Christmas trees need about 100 lights per foot, so you would need 700 lights for a 7-foot tree. </p></div>

Q: Can I use both LED and incandescent Christmas lights together?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not a good idea to mix LED and incandescent Christmas lights if you can avoid it. LEDs and incandescents can have significantly different electrical current needs. This difference can lead to a higher risk of problems and failure for both light strands. When possible, switch all your lights over to one kind or the other for the best results. Do not connect the different types of light strings to each other, and avoid linking them to the same circuit. </p></div>

They are good for haircut. It was $38 for the haircut, shampoo, and style. I like the atmosphere. It's kind of a sheek looking place. It's like an exterior decorator did it. It's not just the run of the mill. They send them to New York to be trained.
