G8RMANJAX Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 Hello everyone,I am a newbie to the LOR gang...recently purchased two LOR's during the sale a few weeks ago. I have been using the Mr. Christmas for the past 4 years with over 12,000 lights and finally graduated to the Major Leagues. Have been getting alot of info & advice from Lee of Atlantic Beach Christmas. I have even completed sequencing 4 songs to date, trying for one a month for my Christmas display.However, I would like to do a trial run (so to speak) for the 4th of July just to make sure I got it all figured out before I run my Christmas display. So I am trying to find a fireworks / starburst thing to make the aerial blast of fireworks for my July display.Does anyone know where to buy or how to make such a thing? I have seen them on some of the displays that some of you may have at the top of your lighted poles.Any information would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

G8RMANJAX Posted July 5, 2011 Author Posted July 5, 2011 OK Guys... thanks for all the help in getting my Independence Day celebration done. Used a total of 22 channels and 4200 lights for the whole thing. With 1250 being for the flag alone. Unfortunately, the video doesn't quite do it justice.I have uploaded a picture and a video for yall to see.... let me know what you think. Attached files

I have purchased most of my stuff from them in the past and they have some of the best sales all year long. Quick and friendly staff for all my purchases.
