scubado Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I made a quick star burst using the same tubes that were used in the Dan Burst. I'm undecided as to wether I like it or not. First video is with the tubes only. The second video is with the bigger star on. There will be a RGB star as well inside the white star and bigger than the chase star. I would like to hear your opinion.https://vimeo.com/43874421https://vimeo.com/43947045 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamS Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Chase is neat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubado Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 When I was doing the bursts, I was just plugging it in momentarily, it wasn't hooked up to a controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Simmons Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I like the chase effect but it's difficult to discern the star pattern. With the star on, the chase looks more like a star, but the star outline seems too bright. Have you tried it with the star on but dimmed to maybe 40% intensity?

scubado Posted June 14, 2012 Author Share Posted June 14, 2012 I haven't hooked it up to a controller yet. trying to decide if I want to keep the idea or not before cleaning up the wiring. I might have time tonight to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barradas77 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 From a total noob it seems like a great idea and I like the effect especially in the chase sequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubado Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 What length are the icicles? I assume thats how you made it?Sorry, I missed when you posted. The lighted length is 11". I bought a bunch of them at Menards after Christmas, they don't have them this year.This thread is talking about nearly the same thing at a much better price. http://forums.lightorama.com/index.php?/topic/23144-snowfall-meteor-light-tubes-from-china-1599-free-shipping/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
