[QUOTE="Bumpy2020, post: 63468, member: 23272"] Hi Guys, I have been lurking here for awhile now (Was originally going to do 2014 Christmas but didn't get off my HoHoHo) Since Christmas I have been reading and looking at options daily For 2015 I'm planning on doing the following out of RGB (single addressable LED's) (Links below) * Under eves with 4 x [url=http://www.aliexpress.com/item/50nodes-DC5V-5050-SMD-WS2811-LED-technicolor-pixel-waterproof-RGB-full-color-in-BLACK-color-case/1705020614.html]5050 SMD[/url] [url=http://www.aliexpress.com/item/faceted-White-C9-covers-with-screw-for-technicolor-pixel-100pcs-set/1328883482.html]C9[/url]'s (I'm hoping using the newer SMD's and being under cover to not have the technicolor pixel issues) * House outline with [url=http://www.aliexpress.com/item/5m-WS2811-LED-digital-strip-60leds-m-with-30pcs-WS2811-built-in-the-5050-smd-rgb/653641294.html]strip[/url] (Including roofline) * Small Mega tree of some sort (Once I find an easy way to fabricate it) ~2.5mtrs but able to write text (Or a matrix for text) * ~7 Spiral / mini trees Which elements I get to build, will depend on how much the wife lets me spend (She is already onboard with RGB's) For the controller I think I've decided on the [url=http://www.advateklights.com/shop/mantis-pixel-mapping/16-pixlite-16-controller.html]Pixlite16[/url] (Its locally made and can control a lot of pixels I will need a 5v power supply and maybe a 12v if I go WS2811 pixel nodes on the mini tree/mega tree Software will be Vixen3 (Been watching lots of videos on how to use it) An initial question I have is, how does strip look when on the roof and you cannot see the LED face directly due to the angle? Using it on the angles on the roof itself, not gutter. Does anyone have a video of this ? As a noob I feel sure I will have alot of silly questions over the next few months as I plan everything out and get my first test order in [/QUOTE]

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
