I guess this is what happens when you never change a bulb. Had to change around 100 burnt out or blacked incandescent bulbs in my tree last night. Now it glows as beautiful as it did when I bought it from the store. First part was understanding that mini-lights had two different voltages. Installing the wrong bulbs and they burned out immediately (not knowing why). Given the circumstances it was cheaper to simply buy a cheap string of lights and pull the bulbs from there.
I used the light keeper pro (gun) which is the only reason why I didn't throw the whole tree away.
