[QUOTE="MikeKrebs, post: 79457, member: 23293"] My first year I started with two tr24 controllers (150 usd), 2000 feet of spt1 with 150 plugs (300? Usd), 2 CG boxes (40), fm transmitter (100) and 47 strings of mainly led lights that were cobbled together from stuff I had and stuff I bought. Led were important to me so that I could run them of one outlet. I could have gotten started easily for half of that (one controller with 6 groups of 4). Of course there were the "incidentals" as well. Plastic cups to make sparkle balls, clips for the roof mounted stuff, dowels for stars, welding station and a few new tools, power cords, and ... If I started this year on a budget knowing what I know now, I would start with one pixel display item. Probably a roof outline done with pixa bulbs with the least expensive controller (esp wireless based?)that will work for that. I would not even try to do dancing to music. Just set up the lights, put some patterns on them. Once you get suckered in to that, go big year two! :) Btw, while there is a time element to this hobby, for me the biggest time is deciding. Once I decide, it isn't that bad to do. I suffer analysis paralysis so deadlines are important. Ymmv. Welcome to the party! [/QUOTE]

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