I Like the colored plug idea.WayneI bought 500 of male and female green connectors from CDI during a spring sale and just took and painted the covers with Krylon paint for plastic in white, blue, and red so that I ended up with 100 of each color covers (well actually 200 green ones - LOL).It makes it so much easier to hook up my mini trees and mega tree with the 4 colors identified. I have 25 foot extensions leads on my mini trees so all I have to do is set them out and run the cords to a controller. Using 1 LOR controller box for 4 mini trees.On the mega tree leads I took a magic marker and numbered them so I have the 48 leads to the box and can hook them all up without having to go look. The leads are 1 through 16 in red and then 1 to 16 in green and so on. Quick and easy hook up.Happy to answer questions. All the little "tricks" that everybody uses sure helps us out when it is time to set up.Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the same enclosures for my LOR, Lynx and home brew stuff! My display is mix of LOR, Lynx DMX and some pro LED wash lights using a IDMX. I am looking at Xlight software for next year that can play a LOR S2 sequence and output to native LOR, DMX using a entec DMX Dongle ect. It looks pretty cool!KEN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafter Bar R Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Where can a guy find a good deal on socapex connectors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beeiilll Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Well it somewhat depends on what kind of connectors you are interested in now doesn't it?The number of pins, weather resistance, style of connector will all influence the cost and quality of connector.http://www.socapex.com/http://www.creativestagelighting.com/products/19-pin-connectors.htmlhttp://www.csecables.com/entertainment/socapex-connectors.asphttp://www.rjfield.com/http://www.mouser.com/amphenol/?cm_mmc=google-_-ppc-_-connectors&gclid=CNujjY7HgKcCFcbd4AodDj2-fAThese are just a few of the places to look.

Max-Paul Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I just saw that YourBroadbandStore that so many of use have bought the Kepal DeMarc boxes from, has gone out of business. Might need to start hunting for a new source now or a different box all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us went ahead and ordered extra inventory with their free shipping promo. Saved a ton of money.Their parent company Arris still offers the Kepal boxes but require a $250 minuimum order.Another source for a similar box is HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
