slowandugly Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 After I turn off the synchronized light show, I turn these on. Do any of you guys do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bretk Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Nice:D. Yes I run a slow fade sequence between and after the shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do any of you guys do this?I tried that, but people kept stopping and waiting for the show. They were disappointed if they came all the way out to see my show and then nothing! So now my show runs continuously from 5:30 to 10:00 or 11:00. When it's off, it's off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas and New Years Eve the slow fades run all night.At the end of the season this year I also added a Night Lights sequence / show that runs all night. It's just a few lights so the display isn't dark and it might help prevent a wayward neighbor from running into a guy wire or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going fast like the video however, seems like people might assume there should be audio with it and think its broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrant Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I've not done my first show yet...its coming but I was going to put up very short removable fencing on the front of the yard at the street to ward off anyone walking into the wires. I've only lived here two years so far and normally my static displays will run for 5 hours on timers then shut off. For this neighborhood, that seems appropriate.
