About This Product

OptiCore smooth C7 light bulbs re-create the rich color and warm beauty of incandescent vintage lights, but with all the advantages of LED.

The SMD LED diode inside the bulb saturates the lens evenly with vibrant light, giving these bulbs that old-fashioned glow from any viewing angle. And with an average lifespan of 60,000-hours, these are bulbs that will last for years.

Questions & Answers

How many feet do these cover
ByOct 24, 2025
1 Answer | 
Answer This Question

This is a box of 25 bulbs, no stringer, so how much it covers depends on how far apart you space them.

    Can you replace incandescent bulbs with these LED bulbs, resulting in a mix of both on a string?

    Answer This Question

    Hi, you can try it, but it may not achieve a look that you like. Generally, for visual purposes, it's better to stick with one or the other.

      will these bulbs be a good replacement for a candolier
      ByDec 11, 2023
      1 Answer | 
      Answer This Question

      These are C9 bulbs with E17 bases. As long as the candolier has E17 sockets, these bulbs will work. However these are cool white bulbs, so the light will be an icy white, like snow, not a warm white like candles, so factor that into your decision.

                Can these replacement bulbs be mixed in with the incandescent bulbs in the same string? Or does the entire string need to be replaced with these bulbs?

                  I like the colors very much, gives off that old school vibe. I ordered these and did not know it was bulbs only. I had to purchase 2 c9 sets and replace the bulbs. They are expensive so included strings would of been nice, I should of read the full description, my fault. I like them though..

                  Multiple people asked where I got my “old-school” Christmas Tree lights. These Wintergreen Lighting 50 ft. C7’s look exactly like the ones I remember, but these LED’s won’t burn my house down. They are FANTASTIC!

                  The only C7 LED bulbs that look authentic
                  Origianl C7 bulbs have a certain vintage magic that is hard to replicate. These are perfect. I hate the LED bulbs that are faceted like cut glass and aren’t smooth. These dont look “LED”. They arent scary bright like most LED bulbs. I did think the price was high but these are the only way to go to acheive a vintage look without the worry burning your house down.

                    False Advertising or Lack of Care
                    This product is sold without a power supply cord. You must purchase this separate from the manufacturer to power the lights. No where in the product description does it state this. Unfortunately after receiving 24 boxes you see the box does state this, Home Depot decided to leave that critical part out.
