Abstract
A novel LED lamp string is provided whose LED lamps are protected from current/voltage fluctuation. The gist of the present invention lies in the configuration of a number of resistors series-connected to the LED lamps along the cable of the LED lamp string. With the resistors, the current and voltage along the cable are stable with no sudden high or low, and therefore the LED lamps have longer operational lives.
Claims1
A LED lamp string comprising:
- a plug;
- and
- a cable connected to the plug, the cable comprising a plurality of branch cables connected in parallel to the plug, each branch cable comprising a plurality of LED lamps and a plurality of resistors connected in series;
- wherein there are at least two resistors along each branch cable, separating the LED lamps along each branch cable into at least three groups;
- the groups of LED lamps along each branch cable are of different numbers of LED lamps;
- and the LED lamp string is hung with the branch cables and the LED lamps as pendants distributed over a planar area.
