RaceMedic Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 Anyone have any experience with "Holiday Time" lights sold through Walmart.The ones I am looking at are tear drop 70 ct strings.I just don't know how good they are and if they will fade etc.Thank-you for your time !Dave
gizmomkr Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 I have 8 boxes of walmart holiday time icicle lights (LED) I assume you are asking about LED's.I had to add snubbers to the ends, but they dim fairly well once you do that.If you are asking about non-led: I have never had an issue with non-led strings. As long as the string doesnt have any special functions / boxes, etc (like a sequence box, or flasher or something). They all dim just like a normal light bulb hooked to a wall dimmer.
captainron19 Posted November 9, 2010 Posted November 9, 2010 The only way to really know is to connect them to your units and run a fade through the hardware control panel. I just tested some C6 LEDs that I bought and I was surprised that they faded perfectly.Just be sure to connect different variations. For example... on 1 channel I put 1 strand and on another channel I put 5 strands because the amount of draw can affect the dim.
