dvc92 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Posted November 25, 2010 The roof is controlled by 64 channels. I took cut a 8 foot by 1 1/2 inch pvc pipe the long way and slid the socket end of 8 light strings into it. I the attached it to the gutter. Attached files
dvc92 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Posted November 25, 2010 I then took a 8 foot by 3 inch pvc pipe and used that for the plug end so the is room for the extension cords. Attached files
dvc92 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Posted November 25, 2010 I then used these in pairs for each of the 4 controller boxes that I placed on the roof. the 1 1/2 inch pipe is attached to the gutter support. The light strings are long enough so that that strings run over the peak of the roof and the 3 inch pipes rest on the other side by the controllers. Attached files
dvc92 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Posted November 25, 2010 The lights are not actually attached to the roof shingles Attached files
