[QUOTE="srchase, post: 124659, member: 36989"] It's the "addicting" part that scares me! $$$! :) If I do this I will probably keep it somewhat simple and subdued to satisfy my wife. House gutters, rooflines, garage doors and driveways are currently outlined with 12" spaced C7 bulbs. And I would stay with 12" spacing using C9s. Roofline lights are new in the past few years--they are LED--but everything else is incandescent including the mini-lights in the shrubs. I'm pulling about 28A at 120VAV across two circuits. What got me started on this venture was the desire to reduce current requirements and just started thinking about replacing all the incandescent bulbs with LEDs. If I did that I would stick with warm white bulbs but I haven't seen a warm white LED C7 that I really like, including the ones currently on my roofline. And for the per bulb cost of a C7 replacement LED I can get a C9 pixel. Obviously I have to add the cost of controllers, power supplies, etc., and that's where the addiction has already crept in. So, exploring pixels. Back to keeping my other half happy, I'm thinking of just periodic color changes with fades and curtains. But also thinking of an 8' or so 180 degree tree at some point. Thanks for the post and for the advice. I realize I should start buying soon if I plan to do this. Also want time to experiment and put thought into my wiring design with respect to power and data amplifiers. [/QUOTE]

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