    Where to get DC power supplies?

    Thanks for the Link Geoff, I was not aware there was a model with the Hi/Low amp switch on the front to change the AmpMeter readout. Just ordered one. I was the same, power supplies, multi-meters and cables everywhere. Hopefully this will tidy up the workshop a little Shane Wilton, NSW

    LED Ropelights

    So true. I am looking for the rope light to go around the garden edge, always liked that, but wanted to be able to change the colours to match the rest of my lights using the DC boards. I was hoping to be able to separate the colours red/blue yellow/green in the rope lights. Anyone know of any...

    LED Ropelights

    Hi Folks I am looking to replace my 240V rope lights with some low voltage DC versions so they could be controlled by the DC boards. Can anyone recommend some rope lights that are low voltage DC ? Ideally I would like to be able to run the colours separately on a different channel so I can...

    Big W Lights for 2012 have appeared.

    Looks like the BigW Icicle lights do not have the snowing function (up/down) again this year, just the cascading (along the string) flashing. That is a shame. My local BigW still did not have the icicles on the shelves yet, will have to look again this week. Good times ahead :-) Shane

    Big W Lights for 2012 have appeared.

    There is a glass colour paint that people use for lead lighting. It is quite transparent and does not block too much of the light. This could be a good option for colouring clear LEDs Hope this helps Shane

    Big W Lights for 2012 have appeared.

    The stores I have been to still do not have all of the lights on the shelves. I am looking for new icicle lights this year and they do not have them out, although there is a spot on the empty shelves for them. Has anyone purchased the icicles yet ? Shane

    Searching for Icicle Lights

    Thanks Guys, appreciate your help, I will check out the meteor lights. I did find some correspondence online that refers to cascading icicle lights, but it led no where. The old BigW lights had a good life. I will continue my quest. Thanks again Shane

    Connecting Controllers

    Ahhh, finally got back. Thanks for all the input I am using the DC CMB16D controllers, sorry no DMX I wonder what would happen if I was to connect them all up in a star pattern (build a hub) and plug them all in. Wonder of it would work ..... anyone tried it. I will check out the radio...

    Connecting Controllers

    Hi Folks We are moving house, and as usual the garden needs to satisfy certain Christmas Light Requirements. I have positioned several conduits around the yard, providing power and network connections throughout the yard before the pouring of driveway concrete is starting. My question, do...
