expanding display

[rickswa]

Hi All. I just got the 1602W with MP3 director this past year and want to add to it for this years display. My plan is to add 4 light arches and maybe a smaller "mega-type" tree. My original plan was to buy 800W's to add to the display but I'm wondering if purchasing the components would be a lot better price wise. Also, if I go the component way, what's the best enclosure for them? Thank you for any help you can give me. I'm just trying to figure out the best way to expand my system with my 1602 being the host of the display.

I would strongly suggest going with CTB16PC controllers http://store.lightorama.com/ctb16pcpage.html. Most channels for the buck, especially for what you are wanting to do.

See recent discussion on a very similar question:

My Suggestion would be to look into the following page:

If you are handy and can solder I suggest getting a CTB16PC Kit

If you are not that handy, Try a CTB16PC Card Assembled
