Remember that if you have 14, you can only go two more LOR networks....

 

Got it, I think you or Mr. P mentioned that to me before and why I have been avoiding more than 14. Being all LOR the best thing I ever did was split off into networks. I had zero bugs two years in a row.

The good news is LOR is conservative with the number of pixels and length of runs from controller to first Light.

If I have a show this year I may tear the 16 rule at set up.

Do you know the reasoning behind the 16 network rule?

They have 'Gland nuts"! They must be water proof.  How about DIY with bullets or flat and Ping-Pong balls RTV'd in place?

Me and my wild ideas  🙄

OK I just ordered a gross of 'beer balls' for $8

We will soon see how many I destroy with my 12mm step reamer

What if you use bullets pushed into the strips then slide a ping pong ball on top. This way there is only one hole?

I might try that. I use plastic plumbers tape, step ream every 4th hole to 12mm. might over drill (14mm?) and shove the bullets thru, then snap into the balls.

we will see.

UPDATE:

OK, this turned out to be WORK 😮 (~2hrs for 50), but I am pleased with the results.. (I only ruined 2 balls out of the 50 I needed). Nice colored glow, even in daylight

1 gross of beer balls

1 string of HC dumb RGB bullets

hot glue, glue gun, electric drill(s), 1/8 SHARP drill bit, 12mm step reamer, 12mm drill, and a sharp utility knife

I drilled a 1/8 pilot hole into the ball. 💡 rock the bit, you cant press hard. Then use the 12mm step reamer to enlarge the hole. I used th 12mm drill to clean the hole, but it can leave a 'shirt, which I trimmed with the knife.

Then I pressed in the bullet (which dimples the ball, so I pull it back), then I seal the bulb in the hole with hot glue (should keep the water out).
