There are many Youtube examples to determine which kind of lights you want on your house, so if you need help I’ve provided a few examples on the bottom of this page. Its that simple, either each light can be anything anytime, or the whole strand has to be the same colors. Compared to Dumb pixels which are RGB LED lights where the whole strand has to be the same color at the same time. Basically they are string of RGB LED lights that can be changed to any color, anytime, in any order. The first and most important term to understand is Smart Pixels. Also I’ll cover a basic setup, this picture shows my basic house setup, this is the basics, and it only gets more complicated from there. So when you hear “ oh i’m using a Falcon controller running on E1.31 protocol and i’ve got 400 smart pixels running on 3 universes under my eaves” that something will make logical sense.

Setting up your first light show – part 2.I’m not sponsored, everything you read is my personal opinion about the industry 🙂 My 2017 Christmas Light Show: Thus I begin my blog post as a intro to smart pixels and how to get started.
For starters I found it very useful to learn the industry terms, and the concept of which parts are needed. So this post is part 1 of my journey into controlled light shows and can be yours too. With a little persistence and a lot of Google, YouTube, public forms and wiki pages, anything can be learned. Even though I have an electrical engineering background and years in technical marketing, don’t assume things come naturally. Want some cool Christmas lights? Tired of the normal lights your parents grew up on? When I began my journey into Christmas light shows (aka smart lights that twinkle to any pattern), I too knew absolutely nothing about the terms, the technology or what to look for.
