Abstract
A LED lamp string includes a base, a plurality of electrical conductive elements, a light-emitting diode and a shroud. The base has a peripheral wall and an accommodating space formed inside the periphery wall. The peripheral wall is provided with a plurality of through-holes. The electrical conductive elements penetrate the through-holes respectively. Each electrical conductive element includes an electrical wire and an electrical conductive pin. The light-emitting diode is fixedly received in the accommodating space and has a plurality of metallic supports corresponding to the electrical conductive pins. The electrical conductive pins are electrically connected to the metallic supports. The shroud is assembled with the base. By this arrangement, the components of the light string can be detached and assembled easily, so that the user can replace and repair the damaged component easily. Thus, the lifetime of the light string is increased.
