Halloween Pumpkins with the new SSC
« on: July 15, 2012, »
Monster Mash testing.

Only have the first four pumpkins finished. Each has 9 nodes of the IC1809 LED Flexstrip (27 LEDs in total in each pumpkin). The controllers are the new Smart String Controllers version 2

Good job I like the small pumpkins and the different colors you make them.

Those are cool.

I have a group of 16 of those same pumpkins.

If I was to do it I'd put 2 - 3 of the rectangles in each pumpkin, just a different approach.

It certainly makes them more flexible that just a single C7 bulb.

That is cool!!!!!!! I love the way you painted the pumkins black and the cut outs glow. I need to do something for Holloween next year.

I'm planning on putting up a few LED Flexstrips on my house next Friday night for testing. If I get it all done, I'll post some video clips of all the DLA equipment working with Light Show Pro  8)

I was thinking of doing something similar using square nodes and the older controllers.  I need to come up with a low cost way to put connectors on the pumpkins so that I can seperate them for storage since I don't want to use mutiple controllers on the pumpkins.

Here, pick up some of these at one of the box stores. They work great.
