About Our C9 LED Retrofit Bulbs

Traditional C9 bulbs are well-known for outdoor decorating use. The large bulbs were first introduced in the late 1920s, and they are available in a variety of color choices. Incandescent C9 lights burn at seven watts, creating a rich and warm glow. Ceramic models have painted glass to create colorful effects while transparent bulbs use colored see-through glass with a gentle glow.

C9 LED retrofit bulbs use E17 sockets, and modern innovations have led to many alternatives to the traditional incandescent variety of bulbs used in these bases. Some of the most popular alternatives are LED C9 lights, created to fit into the E17 socket while burning at only one watt apiece. These replacement bulbs allow for the replacement of incandescent lights in order to reduce power usage. Larger quantities of LED C9 bulbs can be used on a single circuit, leading to more efficient decorating. C9 strands are wired with parallel circuits, helpful because the failure of a single bulb doesn't lead to the entire string going out.
