Ghostbusters" by Ray Parker Jr. The "lead-singer" Jack-O-Lantern (JOL) on the left was constructed last week using 48 feet of ½ inch diameter pure white rope light -- in sections (channels) of different lengths for the facial features and mouth shapes. Since the LEDs in the rope light are spaced 1" apart, that means that this "Rooftop-Singer" JOL consists of over 550+ (48' x 12 = 576) mini-LED lights! The eyespots consist of two .5 Watt G20 LED bulbs in E12 Candelabra bases/sockets. The six sections of rope light were zip-tied to a 5' x 6', wood-framed sheet of one half inch mesh hardware cloth -- after the framed screen was sprayed with quick-drying Valspar flat-black paint. The vertically-stacked "chorus" JOLs on the right were recently made from two 2-foot diameter circles of Coroplast that are framed with "hoops" of 1/2" (plumber's) PEX plastic tubing. Each of these smaller JOLs has 8 channels of 270 orange, purple, warm white, and cool white mini-LEDs. Please visit our YouTube Channel again by simply Googling: kimball ne meyers halloween
