JacobJDell Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 You can visit http://www.magicinthesky.com/lighting/2012.pdf to view our 2012 presale pricelist. We will be adding additional items during the week including icicles in M5, 5mm, C6 70 ct sizes. We have access to c7 and c9 strands, but they are really a larger lens over the same C6 LED. If we see enough intest in this item we will add it to the line-up. Please send questions to Jacob@MagicInTheSky.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacobJDell Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 Hi George,We were glad to be able to add the 35cts as they are very handy for a variety of mega branch applications. To answer your questions:1) We are using the same factory as last time. Our rep just returned from China and visited the factory to confirm pricing2) Yes prices will hold for the sales period 12/16 to 1/20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacobJDell Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 Hi Jim,We hope to break "The Winder Curse" in 2012:}! All kidding aside, I know you exercised considerable patience in 2011 and appreciate your willingness to give us a try. A lot of time has been invested to make this year’s sale smooth and hassle free. We will hold prices for the entire sales period 12/16/10 to 1/20/11.Jacob J Dell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeA Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I am having a problem justifying the upgrade to LED's.Do you find they are enough brighter that only half the bulbs are needed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know that IT ISN'T because the power company gives volume discounts. Prior to the switch over my light bill was $200+ above the norm. After the switch $30.

After the switch $30.I am only seeing a $40-50 increase now. That's only 4 LED strings. Would take 20+ years to pay back.I was hoping the payback would be in much fewer lights needed for my additions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between the two periods of time I have more than tripled the number of lights and have not tripped the circuit they are on (was a regular occurrence before).

JacobJDell Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 Mike,The biggest advantage for me has been the ability to use all 16 Channels on each LOR controller. When I had incandescence usually channel 8 and 16 had to be left open and 7 and 15 were carefully scripted to not be on at the same time as 6 and 14 (ie overloaded board) With LEDs at about less than .04A per strand we have been able to fully use all 16 channels without getting out a spreadsheet to make sure everything would work without blowing the fuses.

fxdwg Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 also, in addition to what was posted above, i prefer the overall look of LED's, i like the rich, bright color of the LED's. Then again, I am a techie! I know there are folks that like the look of incans, but for me, im all about the L.E.D.'s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeA Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Prices here are quite a bit cheaper than CDI's.The fact that Jacob only has 6 (5 in this topic alone)posts in this forum worries me a little.Who had used his lights before? And for how many years have you been importing these led's?Seems that CDI has a spotless record here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
