Claims18
An LED light string, comprising:
- a first loop including,
- a first plurality of LEDs in series successively connected by first connecting wires, and
- at least one first resistor connected to two first resistor wires, the first two resistor wires removably connected to two of the first connecting wires in any portion of the first loop such that the at least one first resistor is in series with the first plurality of LEDs, the first resistor surrounded by a casing, said casing not surrounding any of said first plurality of LEDs, the first resistor being a separate element from the first plurality of LEDs and separated from the first plurality of LEDs by the two first resistor wires which are flexible wires.
