Tuff Bulbs LED Christmas Lights

Tuff Bulbs are the professional-grade LED Christmas light bulbs built for contractors who refuse to make callbacks. Every bulb in this collection features a copper base with nickel coating. That is the detail that matters most.

Cheap LED bulbs use aluminum or steel bases that corrode after one season of outdoor exposure. Corroded bases lose electrical contact. Dead bulbs. Angry homeowners. Truck rolls that eat your profit. The copper/nickel base on Tuff Bulbs resists moisture, salt air, and temperature swings for years of reliable performance.

Every Tuff Bulb runs at just 0.58 watts. You can run longer strings with less voltage drop. The polycarbonate faceted lens is shatterproof. Drop one off a roof. It bounces. All bulbs are dimmable and UL 588 listed for commercial and residential use.

The lineup includes C9 bulbs with E17 bases for rooflines and large displays. C7 bulbs with E12 bases for tree wraps and detail work. Both sizes are available in Sun Warm White, Warm White, Cool White, Pure White, Multi Color, and individual colors.

Tuff Bulbs are made by TuffClips, the same company that makes the professional-grade clips trusted by contractors nationwide. Pair bulbs with TuffClips for a complete install system.

Over 43,000 contractors in our community trust Tuff Bulbs on their installs. From first-year startups to multi-truck operations running 500+ homes per season.

All bulbs available in bags of 25 or cases of 500. Stock your trailer for the season.
