Pro-Grade® VS Retail Grade
Pro-Grade® Christmas Lights
Pro-Grade® Christmas Lights has a lot of benefits such as:
Better Bulb and Lens Design
They are usually made with one-piece construction. That means the bulbs can’t be removed from the socket. Even though this appears to be inconvenient, it has the advantage of lasting much longer as the water and debris that enters the socket can cause light failure.
Higher-Grade Components
The components needed to make an LED light are all available in various qualities and pricing levels. Manufacturers that put a premium on quality will use higher-quality, more expensive components. Retail-grade lights are made with low-quality components that lead to shorter bulbs and lens life. Manufacturers choose to use less expensive components in order to keep costs low. Our Pro-Grade® LED lights are made from the highest grade components available in the market.
More Durability
In terms of duration, Pro-Grade® lights will last you about six to eight years, which is enough time to make up for the extra cost over a year.
Retail Grade Christmas Lights
When compared to Pro-Grade® LED lights, retail-grade lights have a few disadvantages. Here’s how they differ from Pro-Grade® LED Christmas lights.
Bulb And Lens Design
Retail-grade lights are made with a two-piece design. Meaning that you can take out the bulbs to replace the LED. However, that isn’t a good sign since you’re more likely to require replacement on retail-grade lights.
Durability
Retail-grade LED bulbs are not able to stand up to outdoor weather conditions without failing early. These are meant to last about 2 to 3 seasons.
As you can see, Pro-Grade® LED Christmas lights are much better than retail grade. Pro-Grade® has everything you need from high-quality to durability.
