I have just purchased a 6ft 5" Slimline Christmas Tree and wondered if 480 led chaser cluster lights would be far to many for it.. I like a lot of lights to cover but not sure if this would be to many as I've never had a slimline tree...
Absolutely. Normally I use 2 sets of colour changing crystal LED strings, a set of 140 multifunction fairy light string, a set of 20 amber fairy light string and a set of proper purple fairy light string at least. Just putting and arranging the lights takes around a day (7ft 6" tree). It looks glorious, but its a lot of hard work.
Flashing lights are great but watch out for having them visible when you are glued to the telly, or they will hypnotise you into buying all that tat being advertised
The general rule of thumb is 100-lights / vertical foot of tree. Or so I have been told.
I really don't get into the lights and tree thing, More of Menorah type person.
