1. A lighted artificial tree, comprising:
a first cylindrical trunk body including a first trunk wall comprised of metal and defining a first central lengthwise axis and including a first end defining a first trunk cavity, and including a first projection extending from an outside portion of the first cylindrical trunk body radially inward toward a center of the first cylindrical trunk body and extending axially along the first cylindrical trunk body, the projection formed in the trunk wall and defining an axially-—extending first channel; a second cylindrical trunk body defining a second central lengthwise axis and including a second end defining a second trunk cavity, and a second projection extending radially inward and axially along the second cylindrical trunk body, the second projection configured to be received by the first channel of the first cylindrical trunk body, the second end of the second cylindrical trunk body configured to couple to the first end of the first cylindrical trunk body; a first electrical connector positioned at least in part within the first trunk cavity of the first end of the first cylindrical trunk body and defining an axially-extending first connector channel, the first connector channel receiving the first projection of the first trunk body, such that the first electrical connector is rotationally locked relative to the first trunk body about the first central axis; a second electrical connector positioned at least in part within the second trunk cavity of the second end of the second trunk body and defining an axially-extending second connector channel, the second connector channel receiving the second projection of the second trunk body, such that the second electrical connector is rotationally locked relative to the second trunk body about the second central axis; wherein the first trunk body couples to the second body at a rotational alignment about the first and second central axis, such that the second projection of the second trunk body is received by the first channel of the first trunk body, and the first electrical connector makes an electrical connection with the second electrical connector. |
