My entire roof is outlined with them, but I do not have any video yet. 365 of them to be exact. I will see what I can do about getting some video.
How do you like them? How do they compare to GE pixels?

Here are Ray Wu's pixels and C9 covers on my roof...the rest of the display is LED except for the trees lining the driveway.  I'm VERY happy with the product.

I don't know anything about the GE stuff. I think they look really good. The only thing that I don't like is that they don't all fit the way that they should. Some are really tight and some will push all the way in, but over all I really like them.

The ones with the covers on them are the ones that run by the front sidewalk.  You are right, I do have the covers pressed way down on the bulbs.   I bought the covers separately from the pixels from Ray, the covers were an after thought since I wanted to dim the front a bit, and wanted more of an original bulb look that close to the street.

Same here, I wanted a more traditional looking bulb on the house. I added them myself and pushed the covers on so that the back of the pixel was flush with the back of the cover.

. . . . A friend of mine used them on his MegaTree and some of the C7 size on another tree. . . .

I would love to have the source for the C7 size covers. I think it is more interesting to have different sizes and shapes of bulbs for the different areas of the display. Please pass my contact info on to your friend or vice versa and perhaps I can get by to their display this season.

Thanks, I will have to look again. When I ordered the C9s, I must have missed them.

Do the C7 covers also fix Ray's pixels?  I thought that I read somewhere where they didn't.  If someone can clarify I'd love to have some of both in next year's display.

Thanks guys....
