We're using Light-O-Rama controllers for all of the lights. You can see a photo here: http://www.heatherandmike.com/galler...ights/DSCF2338

It's remarkable how long it takes to properly sequence a song... I'm talking hours of programming per minute of song. We've been warned by others who have done this in the past that you end up reprogramming a lot once you see what it looks like in real life. With this being our first year, everything is an experiment! That's part of the reason we decided to go with the boom lift. If we end up hanging the same lights three times, I don't want to be doing it via ladder.

We actually live about half an hour from the JLG headquarters (McConnellsburg, PA) you should see all of the lifts there! I think this is about the only way to we could get to certain points of the house. It's safe, but expensive!

Don't you think there are better ways to check to see if you got power?

To get the lights REALLY bright, we have to connect it directly!
