Ron Amedee Posted January 21, 2011 Author Posted January 21, 2011 Gonna need over 600 c6 led half purple half gold for the Gazebo..16 channels. LSU Fan SORRY. These will be up year round. The deck will be the same 600 Plus year round. Lights will be 50% and static most of the year. Want something that will last through rain storms...NO SNOW HERE..OK TWICE in five years bearly stuck to the ground. The rest seasonal. Gonna build something like a launcher with report firework display(more to come). Building on the star design i read on here-32 channels. 16 channels for the yard to start. Would 10,000 LED's be a good start?The wife loves christmas yet doesn't think she's ready for this !!!
papap Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 Where do you live in La. I live in SW La in Lake Arthur. This was my first year. I had 16 channels and loved it. So I went out after Christmas and bought 30000 leds. Also order 1000' of zip cord with plugs. All I need now is to order 5 or 6 more controllers. LOL

papap Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 This stuff looks like solid strand wire. Becareful rolling it up and bending it alot. The stands will break. But as few times as you will be rolling them up you should be ok.
