Hi guys,
I recently (as I can see from a few people here as well) bought a HolidayCoro megatree. 16x50 pixel, etc. Now I have ordered it, if I were to do it again I would be getting everything in parts and saving a bucketload of money, but you live, you learn.
Being in Australia it has taken a few modifications to get it happening (ie to get a pole that suits, securing the pole into the ground, etc) but she is all up and running in the backyard. Starting to play with XLights and build sequences, all is good there. All is going well. I will need some minor adjustments for height and span etc, but the hard yards are done.
So after I finally set it all up, the missus got to see it in action. Loves it, which is great. Now, says "This is awesome! Now we need a star on top of the tree!"
So, I can put that up, there is length left on the top of the poles I used. But as a 16 port controller with 16 ports being used....is there any simple outdoor controllers (preferably ethernet, I thought of an NodeMCU or something, but would prefer to dodge that, plus would prefer to stick with 12v lights everywhere) that I could run? Even if it means running more network cables, etc.
Cheers!
