For the lights I'm using the rolls of ws2811strip leds They start out as the 5 meter rolls. 50 nodes, 300 LEDs, I'm using 3 rolls here and yes a lot of soldering. I have to watch my money as its tight so at 15.00 us dollars each and 2 sheets of coro 12.00 each I'm down there. I slip the strips out of their covers, 2 sided tape,and when finish seal them with a polyurethane. You are right the Candles were Fasteddy See I'm a hands on person I love to create, not to buy off the shelf. The only software I have and will use is Xlights/NC The other I will use is Patrick as I have 2 mege trees. This should be fun as they will narrate my display. A world apart but next door neighbors.......
