So is RJ's tree 16 strings with 60 nodes each, so 16 x 60 = 960 nodes total?

My calculations comes out to 932, but might as well round it up to 1000.

Oh, and when I first read the subject, I thought it was an actual co-op I got excited and scared at the same time.  I haven't finished buying Christmas gifts yet and this would have definitely blown my Christmas budget.   ;D

Rick and Ken,

  I sent Ken an email and spell out all the math the determine the number of lights to replace his current 3 somewhere around 20' megatrees. Using 4" spacing for what he currently has it worked out to 1920 nodes per tree or a total of 5760 nodes for all 3.

  Ken, Keep in mind what Rick said and check you email.

Jeff,
Your math is correct. Don't forget a hub ($30) and controllers ($8).

I am a newbie and will be creating my first dogle this weekend. (first time soldering at all)
I love the idea and the look of these however I need to see if I can do the barebones system first before I buy these.

With that said if everything goes well then I will want a tree or 600 or so when a coop becomes available?

This includes the lights correct?

I want to get around 500, but the wife says more, so put me down for 1000 / 1024 nodes.
