[QUOTE="Junior, post: 114502, member: 26724"] MEGA TREE( Im still learning myself/ this gets overwhelming for me even after 3 years. I'll try my best to answer some questions. I have 5m mega tree. And it's got 32 strips of 100 of 2 inch apart. . And it's great for images. So not sure what you would go for. Try not to have big gaps jmo. 32 would be great lol. Star I have is chroma star 36 is what I got. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.extremelightingdisplays.com.au/product-category/stars/[/URL] Many big boppers use 5v. I have never used it myself. So can't comment. I use 12v. Yep you can power inject if you like. All the big boppers do. I will power inject but my tree runs of one controller. 3470 for the tree on 12 ports. Power injecting you'd only use half the ports. 300 per port seems to be magic number. Controller I have a couple of pixlite16 mk2. From advatek here in Australia. One to run the house. One to run the tree. Power supply. I just have the 12v ones. I've used cat 5. But the big boppers use speaker wires. Apparently you can get it from Bunnings. I wish I used speaker wires. But I haven't. Why wouldn't the controller be near the tree? Unless you want to use it for everything else too. I have advatek and suppose they all have this where you have a advatek app. And it picks up each controller. I have one called mega tree and one called house. And can fiddle with each via it. Power supplies I have 2 for tree. 2 or 3 for house. Mounting to house. I used a square PVC. Trunking from Bunnings. Attached that to my house and made holes in it. Had I know about strips. I would of attaching the strips to the trunking to get better and acurate spacing. But you may have to ask others cos the this has been mastered better and better over the years. Fan arches are big these days mate. Look into them from Boscoyo. Or Here in Australia via extreme lighting. [URL]https://www.extremelightingdisplays.com.au/product-category/arches/[/URL] I use this 3 years ago. Old school. My arches look ancient. But I still love the normal ones. I've attached the ones I got from eBay. It's one huge role you just cut up the arches to your size desire. [/QUOTE]

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