Re: Machine Lighting
@Rob Klingberg that’s in the ballpark, and toss in some love for a second channel. I s’pose I could just do two blinking white picos under the green and red and call it— just thought it could be fun…

Re: Machine Lighting
@Rob Klingberg Y'know, I don't know that I have a super solid idea of it all... been forever and a day since I got to take a tour on an assembly line (Jelly Belly, Hershey, what have you).…

Re: Ninjago City # 70620

Re: Hurrah! Vertical Power Connectors!

And more parts, more lights, and more... ugh! That DINER sign is nothing if not vexing. My earlier plan to bump the front arch up to a two-dot high was kind of okay, but thought the look was...…

Re: New Millennium Falcon # 75192

Re: Will I do more harm than good?
And frankly, isolation isn't that bad - it's a few parallel 24-inch wires to unplug and re-grid with a center break... after all, it'd still be a dual power input, two IR controlled space.…

Hurrah! Vertical Power Connectors!

First, kudos and happy dance on the release of the Vertical Power Connectors! ... but no more three-packs? Was it a super teeny initial offering, or am I just that asleep at the switch? ;…

Will I do more harm than good?

So, while I'm personally occasionally accused of not being the brightest bulb, my LEGO town has been cast the same slander... but with good reason. Me thinks there's far too much teeny gauge wire…

Re: The "older" burn barrel LEC?
I'm embarrased at how little I paid, but it was a fantastic deal - the burn barrel kit, two of a 2-light strip, 2-6" wire kit, and a battery box. For parts alone, it was gold, but clearly dated...…

Re: Runway Lighting
@Rob Klingberg Hmmm... is this magical BrickPixel some sort of enchanted, variable speed LEC that's going to also find itself at home in theatre marquees? Very cool!
