Your name spake thus:


Christmas lights wired in series

240 volt mains ac - 30 lights

what voltage does each bulb have to be?

any words of wisdom?

Yes--simple arithmetic: 240/30. I leave the answer as an exercise for
the reader.


Can you give me a little hint?

I'd give you a hint, but I'm getting a little old, and don't
understand this new math, so....

I'm pretty sure that these youngsters today got one part
wrong. They keep saying pie are square, and that's just
not right! Even us old guys know that pie are round,
it's cake that square!

Take care.
