The Differences Between Pure White LED & Warm White LED Christmas Lights
Warm White Christmas Lights – The biggest benefit of the warm white Christmas lights is that they are not a harsh light – they give off a yellowish glow and are perfect for creating a warm, cozy atmosphere. If you have Christmas decorations that were purchased a few years back and they appear to give off a warm glow, they are most likely incandescent white Christmas lights. One drawback to using incandescent lights is that they draw more energy than LED lights, so you won’t find a battery-operated version since the amount of energy that it draws would kill your batteries too quickly.
LED Pure White Christmas Lights – Many people refer to LED white Christmas lights as being “cool white” because of the blue-like light that they give off. This is mainly due to the lack of light that projects out; unlike an incandescent light that “glows”. The LED white light is sharp and is great if you want your Christmas decorations to be extremely bright or if you want to achieve an icy look. There are some advantages to using LED white Christmas lights; low energy use, low breakage rate, and because of the low power they require, you can add more lights to 1 plug. The downside is that there are several manufacturers of LED white lights so it might be challenging to match up the color if you spread your purchases over the years.
Warm LED white Christmas lights will fall somewhere in between the bright, LED white Christmas light and the incandescent warm, white Christmas light.

It glows a little bit better than cool white LED’s but won’t necessarily achieve a total incandescent look. These warm LED white Christmas lights will look similar to incandescent lights, but since they don’t pull as much energy, they can be battery-powered. This allows you to use battery-operated wreaths, garland, topiaries and other Christmas light sets while blending your ul listed trees, garland and topiaries in the same holiday display.
