Are LED Christmas lights better than traditional ones?

LED lights are better depending on what you want. Unlike traditional lights, if one goes out, the whole strand (or half a strand) doesn't go out. In that way they're good. The only bad thing, though, is that they do not yet come in as many colors as traditional ones do.

What is the difference between series and parallel Christmas lights?

With series Christmas lights, if one burns out, the whole string stops working. With parallel Christmas lights one light burning out only affects that light. This makes it much easier to replace burned out lights in the case of the parallel lights.

What kind of connection is used for Christmas light?

series and parallel circuit :)Series CircuitsSome strands of Christmas lights use a series circuit, also known as a closed circuit. The current goes to each bulb in order, without going in any other direction. All components of the strand of lights work in a path. If one bulb burns out, or one bulb is taken out of the strand, no charge will move through the circuit. The strand will stay off because the series has been interrupted, and the path broken.Parallel CircuitsThe other type of Christmas light strands uses a parallel circuit. This is a closed electrical circuit where the current is wired in parallel, like rungs on a ladder. The current is divided into at least two different paths. Energy flows only through a common path to complete the circuit. In the case of Christmas lights, this means that there is more than one current going to the bulbs. If one burns out, the others will still lighted because the the current going to each one is separate.
