Consumer Reports: Are you holiday lights safe?

For many, a big part of getting into the holiday spirit means stringing up lights - either inside or outside your home. But some lights can be hazardous. Consumer Reports tells you how to stay safe - and also has some advice this holiday season. If you’re still using the same holiday lights from years ago, they’re probably incandescent. And that means it’s a good idea to check them for safety. You should check the wires and see if there is anything frayed.
