Bizywk Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 LOR has the best out of the box solution while the DIY route offers a more budget friendly option if you put in the sweat equity. You made a good choice in DIY pixels. For years now, we've had those same strips permanently installed under the eaves all year long with no issues. Be aware though, that you'll likely notice minor color differences from year to year even from the same vendor. Just in case, we label and keep a few spools in reserve from each year's order for future repairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. P Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Now wait a minute, all that and you mention only one Pixcon?!?!?!? I hope you have more controllers then just the one. What program will you be using for the sequencing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robsaus Posted March 2, 2017 Author Share Posted March 2, 2017 I'll probably end up with 10 or more Pixcon controllers and I'm going to use LOR for the programing. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
