[QUOTE="Noel Richards, post: 85020, member: 25857"] Just like to say Hi, Just a bit of background I have retired and live on the Central Coast and have limited funds had looked at buying a system from the US but when I asked some questions to a supplier who said to contact another group associated with them as they don’t give that sort of help but happy to sell me the product when sorted, I sent a layout that I wanted to 1 of the companies they said to asking them to list what was required and price that was 3 years ago and still haven’t heard from them. I did do some sums and at that time the cost ended up being way too much for a retired person. I am a traditional Xmas lights person who wants to integrate the traditional with animated display, as I have a lot of young children who attend my display too see Thomas and Percy Garden Gauge Railway. So it would be a combination of both styles at this stage. What my plan is to have the animation up high and in fact a Mega Tree on its side until my centre piece display packs it in, also looking at 2 smaller trees also 4 half hoops. In the future looking at expanding with singing faces and house and pole outlines also P10 boards and as my traditional lights start to fail will be converting them as well as setting up a Transmitter for cars. I have spoken to Chris at Nara and he has given me some good advice I am looking at buying the following strings to start the Mega Tree when my health allows me. Chris has said to post on the site as I could get some good advice that could help me I have ordered a roll of 25mm polyester strapping for the tree, as well as 12mm eyelets to insert the lights into.

Sorry but will have more questions in the end just going through the Video’s on line and have questions starting but will to get my tired old brain around the terminology and what I need to do.

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