I need to update a couple of items from the last video. There is a slightly simpler way to set the Colorlight cards. I also show off my mini trees I’ll be adding this year.

Virtual Christmas Summit is this weekend so sign up now if you aren’t already. Also, I go over a little more on xLights custom models.
Thanks for 10k! I show two more ways to create xLights custom models.

I didn’t like the way the star was modelled so I decided to convert it to a custom model and wired it the way I wanted.
The annual pixel order came in and I can build some props! Starting off with some modular matrix panels.
Well, the little spikey ball has forced a postponement of Christmas Expo for one year. So what do we do now?

James sent me some new coro material to show off, plus updates for other popular items. Very cool stuff! Check it out!
I gathered some info about sequence frame rates people use in the hobby. 20 frames-per-second vs 40 frames-per-second. Can you tell the difference?
