I stumbled across some interesting 3D prints I’m adding to my todo list to print. Others may find them interesting, or feel free to add your own to the list.
Portable power source using Ozito battery. I’m looking forward to trying this one out when troubleshooting and testing when the props are...
With the plan to outline my second story windows with lights, I’m curious if anyone else that’s done it has any light somehow reflect back into the room.
The lights will be mounted outside on PVC about 30mm off the face of the brick, and probably 150-200mm from the window frames themselves...
I couldn’t see how to split the window frame into having 3 window frames though.
I’ve created a custom model with sub groups which seems to work so far.
Hi all.
I'm moving to attaching more lights higher up on the house (damn you growing hedges!), but I'm not that good within xLights.
I'm trying to draw a model for my windows. These are actually 3 separate windows. The included window frame model doesn't seem to support dividing it, but also...
Some people have thought about replacing the LED in solar path lights with pixels, but it always seems expensive buying something just to gut it. I’ve been hanging onto old ones that no longer work just for that purpose.
This morning at Bunnings Scoresby I saw these LED Solar Path Lights for...
Hey I'm in FTG. I ran my first display with pixels last year. Happy to share info, if you want to drop by.. I only have some arches with air seeder hose / LDPE and mini trees.
Good to know where I can get spares at the last minute ;-)
Hey thanks for the pic. What a conundrum. Have an extra pixel, or go back and remove a heap just to push them all back again.. I'm not sure I would have had the mental strength to let it go xD
What about when you mounted the 25mm conduit to whatever? If you pushed it hard against a...
Hi all.
I'm looking at running ChromaTrim on conduit along the gutters this year, cable tying them into the gutter overflow slits (Awesome idea @djgra79).
Although I'm trying to weigh up if there's any differences in how it sits when using bullets or square pixels.
I used bullets with a...
Thanks for the suggestions. The P10 will go down well... and naturally the kids would love the butterfly effect. haha.
Maybe I'm reaching too far, but I'd love to have the lights react to the sound of the music, and not run a sequence, but maybe looping some random sequences will be a lot...
The wife has suggested we have a disco party for our kids’ parties. She’s excited about that, and also about the possibility of using the pixels from Christmas.
Here’s a great chance to buy more things for the disco party, that, wow what a coincidence, I can use at Christmas.
How have others...
A topic I’d like to hear more on, is how others attach lights/props to their house or trees. Not just the fixings, but designing props for ease of installation.
I’d also like to see how certain sequencing effects were done. I’ve seen some good effects, but couldn’t work out how they were done.
