rbmurray210 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I need about 50 strobes that i will be adding next year. What do you all recommend? I seen CDI has a case of 10 for 55.00. Any other good sites? I want to stay away from LED.thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtDew4me Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 CDI and Christmas Light Show both have good strobes. It seems there is a 50/50 split on which ones are best.Most people seem to like the Xenon strobes better than LED. CDI has a presale on now through 1/20 - the Xenon strobes are 37.50/case of 10. go to: http://www.creativedisplays.com/AnnouncementsI ordered 2 cases of CDI Xenon strobes earlier this week and they shipped the same day since they were stock.One persons opinion - I hope this helps.

They'll confirm your order and pricing for you at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Simmons Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Here's another option. The "U" tube xenon strobes have a brighter flash than the "I" tube models that CDI carries. Plus you can get colors, and you aren't forced to buy in case quantities. I don't know how long these pre-sale prices are good for, so don't delay.http://www.diyledexpress.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Simmons Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 If that link takes you to dumb RGB reels, just scroll down and you'll see the strobes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
