[QUOTE="AAH, post: 54802, member: 543"] [me=AAH]slaps Shell for suggesting someone goes with 240V control.[/me] 240V control is the "plug and play"est but has lots of issues including being the most expensive way to control your lights. Unless you have elements like 240V rope lights or 240V rope light ornaments you shouldn't really consider 240V control. Any lights that run off a 240V to low voltage transformer shouldn't be controlled off a 240V controller as the controller and transformer could be damaged by the dimming process. The newer lightweight electronic transformers used on some lights would potentially even be a fire risk if they were attached to a LOR AC dimmer. The good news is that it is quite easy to run Big W and similar style lights off a DC dimmer and there is a big range of them available. AC and DC ones are both on [url=http://auschristmaslighting.com/wiki/Controllers]http://auschristmaslighting.com/wiki/Controllers[/url] . Make sure you grab a copy of the ACL101 from [url=http://auschristmaslighting.com/forums/index.php?topic=5803.0]http://auschristmaslighting.com/forums/index.php?topic=5803.0[/url] . Realistically if you have any sort of electronics knowledge you should be able to have your lights under PC control within a few days if you wanted to. Using a DC dimmer is pretty easy and configuring the software can be done pretty easy. There's a bunch of members around Perth who could give you a hand and the newly "blinking" [url=http://auschristmaslighting.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=2401]Christmas_Lights_Perth[/url] went from being a noob a few days ago to blinking some lights in no time.

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