Hi All, I'm Graham from Cranbourne in the SE Suburbs of Victoria.
After seeing many videos on You Tube and the ever increasing number of home with Christmas light automation I feel its time to seriously look into it, as none of my family/friends are willing to go "all out" like I am! Whilst I'm technologically minded, reading some of these posts about how it all comes together is a little daunting - resistance, channels etc etc...
I like the look of the 16ch LOR PC controlled system, but I'm still sketchy on a couple of starting questions, if I may here:
A) Can I use any of my existing lights I have collected over the years (mixture of LED & traditional bulbs) mostly purchased from Kmart (I mention this because I noticed Big W is mentioned a bit in this forum)
B) Can the LOR system be used here in AUS "out of the box" or are modifications required?
C) Programing/sequencing a show aside, is it as simple as plugging in the lights I buy straight into the LOR unit or are there mods to be done to the lights themselves?
Sorry for all the questions, I have had a little look around the site but couldn't quite get the straight answers to the above I was looking for.
I'm also a DJ and very handy with audio editing software, so in return for some help/advise on the above, I'm more than happy to provide assistance with audio editing or create pieces for you to use as your soundtracks for your lighting shows![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
