1. This lighting string is rated 40.8 watts
(0.34 Amps), do not overload. Connect other lighting strings or
decorative outfits end-to-end up to a maximum of 216 Watts (1.8
Amps) total. If connecting to a lighting string that does not have a
Wattage (W) rating {found on the tag within 6 inches of the plug}
calculate the wattage as follows:
Multiply the current (___A) which is on the flag-type tag by 120.
For Example: Lighting string is rated 120V, 60 Hz, 0.2 Amps.
0.2 X 120 = 24 Watts
Add the wattage of each light string together for a total of 216
Watts or less. (Do not exceed 216 Watts.)
