Man oh man. There would be so many things i would have installed if starting fresh. I think what has been suggested above is most of it. Secondary Switchboard just for Christmas lights Have power points well into the yard, not just on the house. As they are tied back to the secondary...

Even without seeing the the difference versions of the sequences, i know which way i'll go. 😁

Ouch! mine was a good 20kg box and shipping was $95USD on a $500 USD order I did also get a quote from ETop, they have very similar products and pricing. their pricing was slightly more expensive with a $114 USD shipping cost. Though after i told ETop i was going with another quote, the offered...

Did you email him direct? They can often do better prices/shipping that from AliExpress. I just got a couple of new floods (plus 6k seeds/bunch of extensions/tails) a few months ago for a reasonable shipping amount.

Nice work @christmasdave I think Golden is going to be one of the most popular songs this year. Super catchy and very fun song. Thanks!

You can run Unifi AP's without having a controller. I ran a unifi AP along with my regular ASUS router for several months before going out and getting a dream machine.

I recently upgraded from a ASUS wireless router that I had been using for the past 12years to a Unifi system with proper access points. Been a huge improvement in coverage and also a huge improvement in throughput. I had some devises that didn't quite work well on the old system, and on the...

I know there is a real desire to get this in your hand right away, but i would recommend downloading xLights and having a look at what your trying to achieve. If you're set on buying something to just see how it works i would recommend the following. These below recommendations will serve you...

double check you have exported your layout to the controller. Given they are lighting up in test mode, its something to do with how you have set it up.

Don't bother welding, use one of these. I've been using it for a few years and works great. A few bolts and you're done. It makes a huge difference to weight as you can put the pole up and then lift the topper in place. It's very hard to lift a pole and topper in place in one go...

Not sure, i think you would get a reasonable about of time if they are not in direct sun. Even if its a few years, can always just reprint the same file. 3D printing has been a game changer, I now have to remember that 3D isn't the solution to everything hahaha.

Find a 3D print file that you like and i'll print some for you. Here is a few designs that might work https://makerworld.com/en/models/1626803-3d-number-4-modular-led-capable-0-9-series#profileId-1717703 https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/home/led-backlit-house-numbers-model-0-9

There isn't any vendors here in Perth that sell coro props. You might be able to find a company to cut coro if you have the design files, sign shops, companies with a CNC router table etc. Getting/making the prop design files is quite a bit of work. Shipping is expensive, but i've somewhat...

When you are ordering that many, you can get them anyway you like. Get the seeds made up with the exact number you need with the exact length tails you need. I did something very similar last year. I ordered 50 sets of 260seeds at 3cm spacing. I also requested 1m tails at both ends, and 2core...

Keen as mustard! Happy to do some type of presentation. No idea what just yet. Maybe matrix construction and demo
