A woman took to TikTok to share the real purpose of the red light that comes with a set of Christmas tree lights
Untangling the Christmas tree lights after being stashed away in the loft is an annual chore dreaded by many come December. To add to the frustration, there's often the additional task of replacing a dead fuse bulb when the lights fail to spring to life upon plugging them in.
The inclusion of this extra bulb can transform the appearance of all the other lights, causing them to flicker—a useful effect for sets lacking a modern remote to switch modes.
One person exclaimed: "What? ! After all these years of putting it in the garbage." Another admitted: "I thought they were extra if one goes out therefore I always throw them in the garbage." A third shared their surprise: "Whaaat daammn I was today years old."
