Hi I have 2 strings of festoon lights that I would love to use on my mega tree this year. Each string has 10 x 25w bulbs. My question is will they work on a channel each on my LOR 240v controller? Do you think I could make them dim etc or just stick to turning them on and off? The rest of the lights the on the channels are LEDS and a string of 10 strobes. I don't have a great understanding of electricity but I know a lot of people on this forum do so I would love some advice before I plug them in.
Thanks

That should be no problem as 250W is only around 1 Amp load (assuming 240V AC) and the LOR boards can handle that on only two outputs.
