Sandstorm - Darude - Christmas 2024

My home Christmas 2024 light display using Light-O-Rama (LOR) software/hardware and adapting one of their RGBPlus Sequences. Utilizing the S6.x.x Pro version of the software and the TAG feature in the preview makes it simple and quick to adapt their sequences to my custom layout.
Sandstorm - Darude - Christmas 2024
My display started out utilizing four CTBPC16s built from kits and running multiple strings of standard mini-lights, then switched to standard LED strings before finally moving up to RGB programmable pixels (SMART RGB). The display consists of the following props for Christmas 2024:
• 10 Cosmic Color Ribbons outlining gutters and window/door frames controlled by individual legacy LOR controllers
• 2 20x40 RGB Pixel Matrix Screens controlled by an LOR Pixie16
• 4 RGB Pixel Snowflakes and 4 RGB Pixel Spinners controlled by an LOR Pixie8
• 8 RGB Pixel Candy Canes controlled by an LOR Pixie8
• 8 RGB Pixel Arches controlled by two LOR Pixie2 controllers (CCR2 Ribbons)
• 4 RGB Pixel Trees controlled by two LOR Pixie2 controllers
• 4 RGB Pixel Singing Christmas Trees (Elden, Felix, Ralphie, Zuzu) controlled by an LOR Pixie8
• 1 RGB Pixel Tune To Sign controlled by an LOR Pixie2
• 2 USB-RS485-HS adapters splitting the lighting into two networks (Regular, Aux A)
• Numerous RJ45-Ethernet and standard AC 120V power cords tying it all together
I have to admit I’ve become a bit obsessed with Holiday Lighting! I enjoy it for myself, but when neighbors, strangers and friends come by to enjoy the display and tell me how much they enjoy it, it makes all the work to put it up each year worth it. It’s nice to be able to bring a bit of joy and brightness into the lives of others.
