I'm keen to get into this hobby over the next few years. I've done a fair amount of research and reading (the forum guide is excellent, albeit intimidating), but I'm hoping there might be some local sellers that might have a 'starter kit' or if anyone can suggest a bill of goods that I can buy?
I'm keen on 12V WS2811 and from my reading a F16V4. I have a Raspberry Pi or a laptop if needed. I guess I'm just hoping to 'buy everything at once' - connect it up and get my head around it from there.
Here's the house. It's a fully fenced block so there's not much visible (this is from Google Maps so it's on an extended pole above a car - from eye height you get the fence and most of the roof). I was thinking some vertical & horizontal lights on the fence, maybe a prop or two on the fence, some arches and then some lights on the roof - although that's over a longer period of time. Maybe just lighting the top of the fence this year.
