oilmoney 60 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Just ordered 20 sets of the 50ct. Considering the fail rate of the xenon strobes I've been using I think these will be a good investment in the long haul! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
k6ccc 1,073 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I received my sets from Christmas Light emporium a week ago. I have not plugged them into a controller, but into a wall outlet, they work fine. They start firing almost immediately. At first, all 25 lights fire at pretty much the same time, but within a couple seconds, they are fairly random. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

All flashed nicely, then after 10 min. 1 bulb started flashing slower (longer ON and OFF), then it went out. No spare bulbs included. No biggie, but DO plug them in for more than a few seconds it takes to see if they 'just work' Link to post Share on other sites
k6ccc 1,073 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Thanks for that tip. I’ll leave mine powered for a while tonight. Link to post Share on other sites

Little_b 68 Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Tony, and others, how many strands do you use and how do you use them? Example- Mega Tree, how big is your tree, how many strands of strobes and did you string them with the mega tree strands or just random. Thanks to this thread I now have to spend more money.

caniac 388 Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 anyone have video, can see this adding some "pop" to our shows and not as huge as the xeon strobes we use. Link to post Share on other sites
