    My mother use to buy the larger bulbs because the strings on average would last seven years and the larger bulbs were easier to test because they were easier to change.

    I just bought five new strings of led lights because the strings made from China do not last. I put them away working and I brought them out not working.

    They are probably a perfect source of bulbs from a salvage standpoint. Thanks for the tip.

    LOL! Hadn't seen that in a while...

    @Mpark, I did escape that error with the lowercase c in my original message. :)
