LED's are basically worthless if you're trying to generate heat. They are

I'd bet your friend has small "rope lights" on incandescent bulbs, not
LED's.
Do you know of a link to show me the difference, Ray?
Think of miniature Christmas tree lights. Those are incandescent. They
get hot because they have a white-hot tungsten filament.
Now think of the little glowing status lights on your computer. Those
are LEDs
LEDs are solid state devices. They put out very little heat. A string
of single LEDs would be useless for either light -or- heat.

I know the difference between LED and incandescent. I was wondering if
Ray had seen pictures of LED rope lights and incandescent rope lights.
