tigger2U43 0 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I have a couple of white light deer that I put out in a clump of trees near the road. In the past I have placed some blue light strings on the ground in front of the deer in order to create the deer drinking from a stream effect. This looks just ok. I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on I could do this to make a better effect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Darlene Pino 13 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRp9EJzncknbKIpqRIEm-2ch2V9iV0_MxAqdF54hvD6aV_3rSmu have a look at this image. I'm using it as an example of what I'm trying to explain. Lay out your lights diagonal to the street and put each string on a different channel. Program the lights to "flow" one after the other, kind of like chasing lights but to make it look like the water is flowing. Using blue and white lights and over coroplast like mentioned above. I think that would be a very nice efffect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
snoop 10 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I have made the "moving water effect" by hacking a chase light controller and connecting the leads to 3 plugs, then set the controller on chase and plug in each of 3 strings in the controller.http://computerchristmas.com/christmas/link-how_to/HowToId-32/4_channel_8_function_3Amp_animation_controller_for_5 this is a link to the controller I built. Just remember the first 3 wires going to a light each go to a plug the other is the common and you need to split that wire to all 3 plugs. you can get quite a few nice affects with this cheep little controller.

dura321 0 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 My yard has a 10 foot waterfall and a 30 foot river stop by and check it out.I basicly used strings of led chaser lights laid down over blue tarp to give it more effect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Apache Lights 10 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I have done this using several blue net lights probably 5 in length and 3 stacked for 15 total. Under all those I used white net lights with simple flasher bulbs. It was random without a chaser or sequenced but it wasn't bad. Truth be told my neighbor had a better effect with blue lights covered with a layer of some kind of blue cellophane. That's the best I've got. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
