LED holiday lights [RE-wrenches]

[sunwise]

Oh, .... then they probably just have a jumper down part of the string
and the 70 set is two 35's in parallel?  The Blues and Whites are about
twice the price of high output R,G, and Y's, makes sense.  Okay, I'm
going to get off the computer and go bye some.

The blues are 70 to a string as well, all in series. The replacement
blue
bulbs say 3.5 volts. The red/yellow/green ones say 3.5 volts.
