2. Holiday lighting technology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holiday_lighting_technology

   Screw-base C7 and C9 light sets use line voltage (120 volt) bulbs and are wired in parallel. LED-based sets use a current-limiting resistor to reduce the current supplied to each LED. Neon-lamp-based sets have lamps connected in parallel, each with its own current-limiting resistor. Battery-powered sets are also wired in parallel. [citation needed]

3. Christmas lights - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_lights

   In the 1950s and 1960s, the series circuit connected light sets would go completely dark when a single bulb failed. So in the fairly recent past, the mini-lights have come with shunts to allow a set to continue to operate with a burned out bulb. However, if there are multiple bulb failures or a shunt is bad, the string can still fail.

4. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

   If the light bulbs are connected in parallel, the currents through the light bulbs combine to form the current in the battery, while the voltage drop is 12 volts across each bulb and they all glow. In a series circuit, every device must function for the circuit to be complete. If one bulb burns out in a series circuit, the entire circuit is broken.

5. LED circuit - Wikipedia

   For example, a green LED is sensitive to blue light and some green light, but not to yellow or red light. This implementation of LEDs may be added to designs with only minor modifications in circuitry. [10] An LED can be multiplexed in such a circuit, such that it can be used for both light emission and sensing at different times. [10] [12]

6. Incandescent light bulb - Wikipedia

   (Edison needed ownership of the novel claim of lamps connected in a parallel circuit.) [28] [29] The government of Canada maintains that it is Woodward and Evans who invented the lightbulb. [30] On 4 March 1880, just five months after Edison's light bulb, Alessandro Cruto created his first incandescent lamp.

   The pendant light at Fire Station #6 in which the bulb is installed. The Centennial Light was originally a 60-watt bulb, but has since dimmed significantly and is now as bright as a 4-watt bulb. [7] [8] [9] The hand-blown, carbon-filament common light bulb was invented by Adolphe Chaillet, a French engineer who filed a patent for this socket ...

9. 3-way lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-way_lamp

   A 3-way lamp, also known as a tri-light, is a lamp that uses a 3-way light bulb to produce three levels of light in a low-medium-high configuration. A 3-way lamp requires a 3-way bulb and socket, and a 3-way switch. In 3-way incandescent light bulbs, each of the filaments operates at full voltage. Lamp bulbs with dual carbon filaments were ...
