"Amazing Grace" by Yule This video is a close-up of our HP computer screen showing some of the lights-to-music synchronization that we are planning for a Christmas Musical Light Show that will begin on Thanksgiving (November 24, 2011.) This particular Light-O-Rama (LOR) animation-simulation screen virtually depicts the main LED décor and props that we have (mostly) designed and constructed for our Xmas Light Displays. The LED props that you see include the following: Eave/gutter icicle lights; 16-3 ft tomato cage "mini trees"; a LED Animotion Disk (LAD); a 15 ft mega tree; an 8-channel "leaping arch"; 2 aerial-star bursts; 8-2 channel stars in our garage window; a short fence attached to a 7-ft "leaping arbor"; 5- 3 channel 5-foot "macro trees"; a 16-snowflake cascade"; and a 27 channel "Bellagio Pole." Our Christmas Musical Light Show will be computer controlled by using Light-O-Rama software and hardware -- including 9 LOR controllers with their 144 channels or circuits. This computerized and animated light display will use about 62,000 red, amber, gold, green, blue, fuchsia, warm white, pure white and purple LEDs -- and over 4 miles of extension cords on our house, garage, and large corner lot. Because we use only 80% energy-efficient LED lights AND the "typical" LED is turned ON about one-third the total display time, our "electrical bill" for our five-week Christmas Musical Light Show will be less than 80 dollars!! If all our lights were incandescent "Edison" bulbs and were ON constantly (NO dimming, flashing, or "dancing"), the power cost to us would be over 800 dollars!
