I'm working up a set of 1/2" PVC rods, each one having 2 meters (60 pixels) of Flex Strips zip tied down the front.
Ultimate goal will be to make 80 of them. For now, I'm using 16 and set up as a small Mega-tree.

Are you using PVC pipe or something else?

Is anyone else having issues with Ray returning emails? I have been super busy and have been trying to order some flex strips and Extra connectors as well as other miscellaneous stuff from Ray and have sent 4 emails. I have also tried to contact him through his stores contact form and have not received a reply. I am starting to get frustrated and would love to use another seller if I could just guarantee that the flex strips would be the same.

I placed a small order with Ray 10 days ago and just received it Friday.  He did not respond to my request for a status update a few days ago.

My player has been running for over a week now.  I used xlights/nutcracker to create a sequence, opened it in vixen, changed the time to 100ms and ran it through the converter.  Works great for a small standalone rgb project!

I would be interested in 2.

I used GECE's with an e681 for my roof outline. I hot glued magnets to the back of them and put them on the flashing on the fascia. Individual control.

A case similar to the dongle would make a nice package.  Looking forward to it.

I contacted Ray about this back in May and this was his reply:

"if the order can be more than 5000pcs, then i can make a new pcb for it,and need about 3 weeks.
thanks and best regards
Ray"

I like George's too.  I too am trying to find a good balance between value and resolution.  Truth be told, I am thinking of going to a 2811 based 60/m with a 682 controller to keep the sign a bit smaller since I am like 30' to the street, but I am clueless and not really wanting to go astray from RJ's gear. 

I'm using the E681 without any issues with about 400 GE Coloreffects lights I have on my roof line and yard outline.  I was concerned a bit at first, but it has proven to be a solid piece of hardware.  For a matrix where all of the strips/nodes will be right next to each other, it may actually be easier to use a 681 or 682 because they plug right into the board.  I do like RJ's SS gear better for flexibility it offers for element spread out in the yard.
