It Costs $82,000 to Light the single Million Christmas Lights at this House [ChristmasLights]

The Faucher Family in Delaware have built extravagant Christmas lights setups for 25 years now. How extravagant? They use 1,000,000 lights. So how much does it cost them to run the lights for a month? $82,320. Gulp.

HouseLogic estimated the complete cost due to the common price per kWh inside the Faucher Family’s region and assumed each of their 1,000,000 bulbs were the common 5 watt C7 bulb. They then figured the lights to run for 4 hours each night and 30 nights in total. The estimated cost came out to be $686/hour and $82,320 for those bright 30 nights. handsome profit to get inside the Christmas spirit!

If the Fauchers use LEDS, their estimate would drop right down to $89 hour and $10,680. For their sake, let’s hope they do. Inspect other extravagant Christmas lights costs at HouseLogic . [ House Logic via Unplggd ]
