You guys are awesome. Thanks. So fast too :). I Love ACL!

Hello all, Looking for some advice about using a controller outside my front fence on the nature strip. I have spoken to local council, and they are OK with it, but I specified any power outside my fence would be low voltage (my whole show is 5V) On the nature strip I am hoping to run 50 peace...

So being a public holiday here in NSW (Sydney), I have pushed ahead using what I had available on hand which was a bunch of 20mm conduit, and some leftover Synthetic Turf Anchor Nails 125mm (5"), from a previous project, so I went ahead and made these up. Pretty happy with result. Actually...

Hello friends, I haven't posted much so thought I would share my experiences. This year I decided I need to bring my show closer to the viewers and thought Peace stakes in the nature strip would work for me as there are trees and plants plus it's on a slope so the bit I will use is not a...

While I am still a newbie, I used 6x ESP8266's in my first show (2020). About 1500 LEDs I think. They were on Wi-Fi and while it worked OK and kept the price down, occasionally there was a delay or one would go out of sync, so opted for a hardwired Falcon the next year. I too have been...
