MP3 Music Christmas Light Controller coming soon!



We started carrying this awesome controller last year and we quickly sold out! I'm trying to give everyone a heads up, we hope to receive these early September. So please bookmark the site or follow the blog (or RSS feed) because as soon as they are back in our hands to ship we'll update the site and blog.

Christmas light controllers...

Most of us have seen the videos of Christmas lights on homes that are synced up to music, and while the same number of us normally don't have the time or money to devote to those sort of Christmas light antics there are some simple and affordable ways to animate the lights on your home.

Our Musical Christmas controller is by far the most popular light controller we have ever carried. This easy to use controller features six outlets and 20 different Christmas and Holiday songs! There are 3 modes for your Light Show; Steady, which makes all the lights stay on, Unison, lights simply in time to the music, and Multiplex, this mode makes every outlet effectively a different instrument so that every string of lights is doing its own part of the song. It can handle a total of 12 amps, has a built in speaker, and can be mounted in a variety of ways. No programming, no dip switches or jumpers, just a simple plug in, turn on operation.


If you don't need music and just want to simply animate a display we have our small preset chasing controllers. These controllers have anywhere from 2 to 4 outlets and a dial that you can use to control speed of the chase. These controllers simple rotate through the outlets, lets say you have a 3 circuit chasing controller, all the controller will do will be a simple turning on and off of each outlet as they are ordered. So, outlet 1 is on then turns off, then outlet 2 comes on and then turns off, and so on. There's a small potentiometer that controls the speed, from slow to fast.





On the opposite end of the chasing controller spectrum we have our Programmable Chasing Controllers. These controllers have small DIP switches which allows the user to make their own light show. The more expensive versions of this controller can do build ups, fades, chases, flashes, and can be set to do anywhere from 2 to 8 circuits!


If you just need a gentle fading controller we offer those too, our small fader box simply plugs into a wall outlet and lets the user plug two different strands of lights into the controller. We do offer some commercial quality Faders as well.



I hope this post has given you some insight into the world of Christmas light controllers. We carry a wide variety of controller but no magical controller that makes normal lights chase, fade, twinkle, etc inside the string itself (btw if you know someone who makes one, send us a email!).
