paul sessel 0 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Paul, I just wanted to make sure I got this straight, all your lights are full-wave one piece construction Holiday Creations brand? If so then you definitely have my interest. Garrison Yes - how's this Chuck Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChuckHutchings 0 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Yes - how's this Chuck The problem is reading it on some monitors at an angle. It gets washed out and you have to position your head directly in front of the display. (The contrast isn't very good either.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think I now have a good vender for them and should have some pricing by next week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paul sessel 0 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Paul: The icicle lights are seriously C6? How do they look? Never seen them before. Lenny Yes - they look totally awesome! The problem with the snowflakes is storage. They get so tangled up - they are a pain in the drain when you pull them out the following year.

FlashJim 10 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Do you have any photos of the C6 icicles? C6 seems rather large for icicles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lightcrazy28 10 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 I was looking at your snow tubes but i want to make sure im right. 20 inch 320 leds per tube 5 tubes total is $95? Can they be used with LOR? When being used with LOR will they stay random or all on at the same time? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paul sessel 0 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Do I still get the "Chuck Special": Buy one, get one free? You mean to tell me you never figured out that I doubled the price on the first one? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lightcrazy28 10 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 what about the c9 icicles can they be used with lor as long as they are not faded Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paul sessel 0 Posted December 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 what about the c9 icicles can they be used with lor as long as they are not faded I would have to say no as they have their own technology to run them - you would just be asking for trouble.

eldoradoboy 0 Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 I drove by a houyse here in town using a mostly static display.. their whole house is COVERED in white LED's.. i noticed at the top and bottom.. lights that are almost like little water droplets falling.. they looked really cool.. are those the tubes you are talking of? it almost looked like they are icicle lights where it was "dripping".... -Christopher Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eldoradoboy 0 Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 those look similar to the icicles i saw.. turns out the house i referred to in my post.. the display owner PM'd me and is going to get me some more info on his icicles.. they may be the same as yours... super cool either way! i could think of all kinds of neat things to do with those... do you think yours can run from a LOR channel as long as I dim them? or wil the TRIAC drive destroy the board? -Christopher Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dpeters11 0 Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Ok, I'm a newbie to LED. I have a lot of C7 lights on my house outline I want to switch to LED, as cheaply as possible but that will work with LOR and will last a reasonable amount of time. From the PDF it seems that at that size, only retrofit bulbs are available. Am I correct that I would then need to get LED strings to put them in? My since my strings are incandescent, they don't have rectifiers on them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RiscIt 10 Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Nope.. The whole idea behind retro fit bulbs is that they work fine in your existing stringers. They handle the AC/DC issues internally. Just don't expect them to throw as much light as your standard C7s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Max-Paul 10 Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Also it has been noted by some who have made the change that the lack of heat from the bulb has left the LED type of lamps buried under snow. I am sorry I didnt note where you live so this might not be an issue. I am going to outline my roof in 2010 and plan to get the stand-offs so that the lights are several inches above the roof.

RiscIt 10 Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Paul S, could you at least talk about the new incand. strobes? I assume you've at least seen them before putting them in a display... Are they shaped simmilarly to Daryl's? Are they as bright? I can't imagine you seriously expect folks to make a $40 purchase based on nothing but a single line in a PDF file.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
