From The Family Handyman -
Use enough lights. Use 2,000 lights on the bottom half of the tree and 2,000 on the top half for a total of 4,000 lights. You can use white lights or opt for colored Christmas lights.

I would suggest that it is for people who have not jettisoned any lights for the last forty plus years.
