I'm unfortunately not able to use these in the next couple of years so I'd rather pass them on then keep them around.  They are still sealed in the co-op box they came in.  I'll only sell them as a whole set for the price I paid.

Price is 191.14 + 14.44 outbound domestic shipping + insurance for $205.58 total.  The 16 smart string controllers and the SS hub have to be sold as a set but if you don't want the 12v power kit I'm willing to pull that out of the box and sell the rest for $201.58 (domestic shipping included).

I'll only ship to the paypal confirmed address.

Thanks.

Put me down for 2 of kit #2.

Thanks so much

Yeah or you can even pull out / snip off the ground prong.  You should make sure your flood light housing is water tight though.  They may have added the ground plug because of water problems.

This probably isn't anything you don't already know but for that many splices you might try something like this:  You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login . Just the first result on Google might be cheaper elsewhere.  Your local hardware store will have the same.

Just some kind of crimp on splicer so you don't have to go through the process of strip-solder-heat shrink with every one.  Just cut the wires, crimp it on, then move on.  Not the most beautiful solution but some of them are inline so they won't be very noticeable.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but I watched a video of the Light Keeper Pro (not the old version) and he fixed a tree by clicking the trigger multiple times.  I think this would fuse the bulb wires as described above.

Also it has an electricity detector in it so you plug the light string in and run it near the bulbs in order.  As soon as you no longer hear a tone you've found your bulb.  It might not be as obvious as the buzz box but for the price difference I will definitely be getting a Light Keeper pro for this year.

You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login -  Keeping in mind that the output of the lynx dongle and the DMX spec are only supposed to have 36 units connected without some kind of repeater (like the express if I'm correct) is there anything wrong with using this kind of RJ45 splitter on our lines.  If I understand DMX correctly it is for our purposes basically one way and ever device receives the whole DMX message (packet for lack of a better word) unchanged so this should work.  The only problem I can think of is you'd be losing signal power but this would be for things like an isolated cheapdmx box or something like that.

Am I correct?  And yes I'll find it for cheaper or make it but the radio shack link is a nice picture of a splitter.

Thanks

Any chance anybody is going to post some notes and/or videos?  That sounds like some interesting stuff but I don't know of anything like that going on near me.
