Box on Rails Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 (edited) Last year the wind blew my 4' x 4' coro singing trees off the roof. to avoid that happening again, this year I got the smaller 2x2 trees Mounted on the ground and used LED lights. Plus I changed all my dumb RGB strips to Pixels. Looks like I might need to adjust the intensity down a bit. I have a small yard and the RGB lights are really bright. here is the reseult. Here is 2014 Christmas show. If you look closely you can see that the strips have a lot of dead spots. That was the main reason for the change to pixels. I only used the strips one season and by the end of season this video shows how bad the failure rate was. This Year I have had only 1 pixel fail and the fix was to cut it out. simple.

Box on Rails Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 Thanks guys. Oilmoney, I got those palm trees 6 years ago and they add a cool tropic touch to the show. They are incandescent lights but still hold there own in the show full of LEDs. Kingfish, I'm not sure what makes a gem. I do have some not so usual music from August Burns Red and a funny South park version of Oh Holy Night. Most of my sequences are from Trans Siberian Orchestra and Straight No Chaser.
