Holiday Light Exchange in Palos Verdes Estates

Holiday Light Exchange in Palos Verdes Estates on November 30, 2011:

 

South Bay Environmental Services Center (SBESC) and the City of Palos Verdes Estates invite you to participate in the annual holiday light exchange and brighten up your holidays.   Trade up to TEN working strings of old electricity-guzzling incandescent holiday lights for TEN new, energy-efficient multi-color LED strings.  Trade-ins are first-come, first served.  Quantities are limited and you must be a Southern California Edison (SCE) customer to qualify for this program. Please bring your SCE bill or your driver’s license for verification.

LED (Light Emitting Diode) lights are energy efficient in that they use 80% less electricity and cost less than a dollar per season to operate (per 300 C7-sized bulbs), and have a long life span (20,000 hour average LED life).  LED lights are safe and cool to the touch, no matter how long they have been on. 

The families who take advantage of the Holiday Light Exchange will be happy when their SCE bill comes after the holidays, for each new strand of LED lights will save hundreds of kilowatt hours now and in the years to come, and that translates to saving money during the holidays!
