One hundred and thirty twinkle balls are threaded among the 616 branch tips, adding points of light that move independently of the 260 LEDs behind them - the effect is closer to a decorated tree than a lit one. Snow flocking over green PE and PVC needles supplies the frost. The 6 ft frame spreads 4.1 ft on an 18-in stand across 3 hinged sections and weighs 18.92 lbs. Lighting effects are switchable, so the twinkle can be stilled to a steady glow for a quiet evening. Fluffing the tips at setup is what brings the width out to its full spread.
