-Roughly 12-13ft Tall <\/p>\n\n\n\n
-16 Pixel Strips – 50 each – for a total of 600 pixels<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You won’t find any of our sequences on any other houses! Songs can take anywhere from 30-80 hours to complete. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Most of my lights are WS2811 Pixels – running at either 5V or 12V depending on which light they are. At last count I have about 6,000 RGB Pixels in the light show. These Pixels are obtained by local dealers, as well as directly from Chinese manufacturers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As of 2022 – we are 100% LED!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n To run scheduling on the Light Show and Run the Light Show itself, I use a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ with FPP (Falcon Pi Player) Installed. https:\/\/github.com\/FalconChristmas\/fpp<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n I use 2x Falcon F16 controllers and 1x Raspberry Pi with FPP for Christmas. For Halloween, I only need to use 1 Falcon F16 Controller. <\/p>\n\n\n\nSoftware<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
