Guest wbottomley Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Three mega trees up and ready to go. That's over 20K lights in one day. Next weekend, who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeKinne Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Finished up the Wife's Halloween show tonight, nothing left but some minor cleanup and a re-sequence of a single song (double a couple of elements and just need to mirror up the layout). Have a couple of Hybrid trees in the garage that are just waiting to be setup, then comes the big issues......figuring out how to sequence 2 CCR double arches. Only 16 days till I can start putting stuff out in the yard. Let the games begin! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wbottomley Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 That's a good idea. I'll set it up as soon as I pull all of the main wire from the pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wbottomley Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 John, let me say that LED's on mega-trees are awesome! They are guaranteed to work! That has made my life much more pleasant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBullard Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 You know my feelings! No trouble shooting loose, broken or burnt out bulbs. Hoist them up, and never worry about them.And the blue is brilliant.Cant wait to see all 5 trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wbottomley Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 When I turn them on, I was stunned.Incandescent bulbs are history in my display. I will continue to convert them over. I hate troubleshooting those little pesky good for nothing dimwits. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBullard Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I started changing mine over to LED in 2007.Have just about finished changing out all the wire frames I built to all LED.But it was the megatree that really started it for me. Wind slapping strings against the pole during setup, breaking bulbs, having burnt out bulbs and lowering the strings to repair and etc.Your life is going to be so much easier now, William Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denise Brunner Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 December one is lights on for me ( I hope ). I have my 10 bushes done outside with 4 color mega strands. Got my two bases (4 ft concrete) set for my two 20 foot mega trees. Also have 8 songs in the final stages of completion (4 I think done). Can't sleep to night so will do some sequencing. December one looks like it might happen.Play safe everyone !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstorms Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Lights go on Thanksgiving Eve. Last year was my first year doing a computerized display so everyone is probably watching to see if this is going to be an annual thing. Crew will be here on 11/5 to help put lights on the roof.I thought I was done sequencing, but now that I have S3 and channel groups I'm feeling a strong urge to add some more.
