Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 3 of the 16 channel kits. I love to solder!!! I'm so glad Dan came up with these kits. That'll take the number of channels to 144!!!!!jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 For me, I'm thinking, 2 CTB16D's, 1 DIY kit, , I would love more kits, but maybe after I get the first one assembled. Maybe 1 or 2 more items the closer it gets and the more tired I get.(Edited out the Easy Light Linker) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 For a graduation gift from my parents, I'm getting 2 ctb16's. I'll probably spring for a couple more myself, as well as an MP3 director. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Well if I can convince my wife, I want to get two 1602's. Already have the program and two songs going. I need prove I NEED two boxes for this year. She balked when I said they were on sale for only $520. I said we are saving money--just like her shopping trips!:} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 My purchase is boring compared to all of you. This is my first purchase so I'm going to get just the 1602w and the starter package. 16 channels will be good for now, get me a good start for the first year of doing this.I started putting decorations up already, not outside, but in the room where I'm going to sequence. I have things that you would put in windows and nailed them to my wall. I'll number them so I can see that everything is working in the sequence.I am EXCITED!:laughing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had/have the 8 channel non-d version! I did ok. If I can do somthing that can wow neighbors with 8, you now have the power to top what I did twice over!--Daniel L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 I would buy what you can afford. This is my first year with LOR, but I'm just going on a spending spree. I'll probbly say to myself later " Are you nuts " , and when I reply myself, it'll be " YUP ". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 You can do a very nice display with one controller ... however, my advice would be to get two controllers if possible. Because once you begin designing your display and trying various things, I guarantee you'll wish you had "just a few more" channels.Though, I wouldn't go beyond two controllers for your first year ... it can be too much, too soon. This is my third year with LOR and I keep adding a bit more each year and I think at this point I'm probably just about at the end of my LOR expansion. :-) If that's possible.Good luck!

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Is the Easy Light Linker new this year?If not, how well does it work? Since my computer is upstairs in the back of the house, that may be a better purchase rather than getting 2 1602's to start this year.Thanks again.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Easy Light Linker is a replacement for wires to get out of the house without cables. From what I have read. It's not a light controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
