Guest guest Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Well, I packed up my LOR controller and front yard setup today and transported it to the big church for our Trunk Or Treat contest. The theme was sports, so we had 3 vehicles rafted together there. Mine was baseball themed, another family member was football. Here is a short video of the setup in action:http://www.lauderdalechristmas.com/videos/trunk-or-treat-2006.wmvI had my LOR controller, and it was a smash hit, especially since I had my sequences of Disney’ Main street Electrical Parade, and “Under The Sea” from Little Mermaid playing. The crowd loved it!Out of about 40 cars there, I won the grand prize, 4 tickets to the club level to see Florida Panthers play, and we get parking pass too!I even had my Ramsey FM30b transmitter there so I was able to blast the audio to the crowd with my Mark Levinson stereo in the Lexus. Good thing I thought ahead and brought my little portable battery jumper, I drained the battery after a 45 minutes! Jump started it right back up!We had talked about this issue of powering your LOR when you are mobile in another thread last week, about power inverters and how they have thus far been unusable with LOR because of modified sine waves. As luck would have it and God knew just what I needed, there is an island in the middle of the parking lot with one emergency outlet inside an access panel, and it’s all we needed, good old 120 A/C from FPL.
