- a housing support;
a voltage/current supply line, having an first end and a second end, and supported by said housing support;
a ground line having a first end and a second end and supported by said housing support;
a first control line supported by said housing support, having a first end and a second end;
a second control line supported by said housing support, having a first end and a second end;
a controller having a first connection to said second end of said first control line, at least one current switching input, and a second connection to said first end of said second control line output, and a power input connected to said voltage/current supply line, a ground connection connected to said ground line, said controller configured to control access of said current switching input to said ground line;
at least one light emitting diode having a current input connected to said voltage/current supply line and a current output connected to a corresponding current switching input of said controller.

Abstract
A sculptable, decorative light system includes a number of modules of differing lengths which can respond to commands either in parallel or time delay to create pre-selected light colors and sequences. Three miniature connectors are used to create a direct current fed system which has the potential to even out a current demand. Interconnectable lamp modules are provided in sets of 1, 2, 3, 4, and more lengths to create decorative light displays. Each lamp module or string of modules may include a male/plug end and a female/receptacle end.
