I will be in CT for part of the Holidays, and would love to see some displays. Is there a list anywhere of the Displays. I will be near the Oakdale region, but would travel to see some slights. Thanks Erik

All, So my Display is on hold for three years as I took an overseas assignment for my company. Pretty good deal and great living in europe for a couple of years. Now that being said, I am continuing to plan my display for when I return to the states, this will include at least three new Mega Trees and LED lights across the board. Obviously this will be a sizable investment, but was thinking of spreading it over three years and take part in the CDI Presales. For example this year, I would purchase the LEDS required for the Mega Trees and controllers, next year the LEDS needed for the

All, Well I had big plans this year for Christmas Lights at home in Indiana for 2010, but life always sends a curve ball and I have an opportunity to move to Geneva Switzerland for 3 years and then back to the States. Hard to turn down, but now I need to know what I should do with all my equipment that I have purchased over the last year. I have 3 LOR controllers all 110V - I believe I can convert these to 220 Volt. Not sure if I I can just convert the two main power cords and leave the individual channel cords alone. Also I have a role of SPT C9 cord with LED retro lights and a to

I would be in for a Meet and Greet on Friday the 9th, again time and location dependent. Keep me posted.

Gary - Great thanks for the picture. It really helped explain the concept. I assume that lengths of the J-Channel will fit most windows or do you have to splice a couple of pieces together? Of to HD I go to buy some J Channel

Gary - Thanks...the pictures would be very helpful.

Gary - How do you join the corners of the J-channel? I can't really tell from the pics on your website. Looks to me like some fancy cutting and pop rivets. Thanks Erik

Going to C9 retros, so that is why I went ahead and order the Spool through CDI during the Appreciation Sale. This way I can make up my custom lengths and do the lights around the windows like I want, also needed to goto LED just to cut down on the current draw as you say. No worries this year...hopefully.

All, Just looking for some opinions. I am considering purchasing a 500' spool of C9 socket cord. Currently I have several strands of C9 that I have used in the past on INCAD lights. Is there any reason that I could not use my existing C9 cord and make the lengths that I need? Or is there any other advantages to buying a large spool? Just looking for some insight. Thanks Erik

Great news. but a few questions: 1. Does the 20% off include everything on the website? (Zip Cord, LEDs, non sale items) 2. The 20% off of what price? Website? Product Catalog? Estimated In Season Pricing on Pre Sale Sheet? Specifically, I am looking at M5 lights. I see a pricing in your Product Catalog lines up well with the website, but your estimated "in season" pricing on your pre sale sheet is different? Is this a different brand? May just need to call to get the answers. Thanks Erik

All, Just wanted to provide some feedback to the forum based on my decision from this thread. I choose to purchase LSP and have been working with the program off and on for about a month. I wanted to share some of my insight as a newbie sequencing in LSP. A little bit of background, in 2009 I downloaded all my sequences and used the basic LOR S2 for scheduling and running the show, I did not do any of my own sequencing. In addition, I am currently running LSP on a iMac through Parallels (more to follow on this), but my show computer is a PC. My main driving factor for selecting

All, Since I really only started in the "Blinky Light Club" (my wife's terminology) in Nov 09, I was looking back over the last 6 months and was realizing how funny it is that a small idea can quickly morph into some grand plan. For example: 1, I started with 16 channels and animated my static display, and it is quickly growing towards the 80 channel mark in a year. I don't this is too uncommon. 2. Mini Trees - I wanted to add some. Looked at tomato cages, then found coro trees...oh wait now I can have two colors per tree... okay go with 8 tree at two colors...and need 16 channe

PM Sent has been sent.....

Add Leaping Arches and CORO trees....yeah I know not super secret here on PC. But for my neighborhood a it is truly "skunk works/area 51" type of stuff. Think I may add a retinal scanner device to my garage for my neighbors when I start to build everything this summer.....
