Austen Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Greetings,This year I want to add mini strobe lights all over my house, but I have a few questions:1. Does each strobe need to be on 1 channel? So if I have 25 strobes, that's 25 channels?2. What mini strobes should I get?Thanks,Austen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Simmons Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 You could probably run all your strobes on one channel. One brand vs. another is a subject that's been beaten to death. A search for "strobes" will yield a veritable plethora of threads... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjdurrant Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 The CDI (LED) and CLS curtain strobes are the most popular.. I am going to be running 15 CLS strobes on one channel.http://christmaslightshow.com/home.php?cat=11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like they screw in to a light socket.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjdurrant Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Correct.. I bought the C9 string kit with them.. each kit supports 5 strobes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austen Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 Is there any other cheaper kinds of these curtain strobes? I would like to add maybe 20 or 30, and at $7 a piece that can get pricey.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

displaysinmotion_will Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 the c-9 strobes from action lighting are out of stock until nov 15, I bought 144 of them but they were only able to send me 48 until they get the rest in next month. the price works out to 4.73 per strobe also if you spend more than $500 they will give you 15% off of your order so the price per comes to 4.02 per strobe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
