Does anyone know an easier way to find a burned out bulb in mini lights than taking out each one? I have one of those chirper testers but it is picking up power from the other wires(swag lights) & chirping.

A pain as it is thats the only way I know of to chase a bad bulb down. It may be cheaper to invest in another set of lights and use the old ones if compatible for spares.
Good luck on your search

Find a good working set that is the same as the one you are working on. Remove one bulb and use the empty socket to test each bulb in the non working set. There could be more than one dead bulb.
