Calculate Christmas Lights Amps
Use the following information to estimate the load requirements of your Christmas lights display.
This formula will determine the amount of Amps necessary to power a Christmas lights display.
This table works for all of the C7 Bulbs and C9 Bulbs that we carry.
Total Number of Bulbs X Bulb Wattage ÷ 110 = Amps Needed

5 Watts 		  25 Bulbs = 1.135 Amps
  50 Bulbs = 2.270 Amps
100 Bulbs = 4.545 Amps
10 Amp Chaser Control Box ( Model 3 TU-10 )
can turn on up to 190 C7 bulbs per receptacle
