[QUOTE="Elecgreg, post: 114328, member: 33966"] I use to do a Xmas display at my home for a couple of years back in the mid 2000s however it was never automated or have any bliky lights except for those that came as blinky lights so it was all lights and cutouts with a few rope light outline figures with some of them being indoor and some being outdoor so it was a real conglomeration at the time. With this lock down my situation has again changed and I have decided to start again with 2021 being the time to exhibit again. Being a newbee to this type lighting system I am giving myself time to have a play before it becomes a big rush which it will inevitably end up being as it is always the way. I have one question to begin with and it may seem a little silly that is which system to use for A) Expansion of the display over time and B) cost of equipment needed to start a basic display. I have decided on cost alone to avoid the LOR system. However I'm not sure on weather Arduino controllers will integrate with the systems that are available as this could provide the control of 240V elements that I already have using relay control or should I just loose those elements. (convert to RGB as time and funds permit). Also have already purchased not arriving until next year some time that being 5 X 50 RGB individual addressable type WS2811 5V if memory served me for about $50 so all in all a good beginning to play with and discover what can be done.

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