[QUOTE="i13, post: 122237, member: 21708"] I'm glad that you posted here before committing to ordering. If your LED strings have a blinker unit and you bought them within the last 6 years or so, the [URL='https://store.lightorama.com/cmdedcca2.html']Light-O-Rama DC controller[/URL] is unlikely to be compatible with them (and nor is an AC controller). Regardless, I wouldn't recommend buying this DC controller because you can get better value for money elsewhere. It is also an uncommon controller in this community so it may be difficult to find someone who can help troubleshoot any problems that come up. Your logic is correct but incomplete. With that controller (and some similar controllers made by other companies), the two banks of channels can run at two different voltages. The catch is that you'd need a separate power supply for each bank. In reality, you can have an unlimited number of different voltages on any single polarity DC controller with some creative wiring and extra power supplies. See example 2 here: [URL]https://auschristmaslighting.com/wiki/Controller-Setups-and-Settings[/URL] Also note my above point that the voltage printed on the plugpack doesn't always perfectly match the voltage that the LED string requires. Please post the details of your LED strings that I listed in my previous post. I can't recommend a controller until I know more about them. The bare minimum that I need in order to suggest a controller is: [LIST] [*]Whether the string has a blinker unit [*]The number of wires between the blinker unit and first LED [*]The voltage written on the plugpack [/LIST] [/QUOTE]

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