Remember that awesome Christmas Lights Gone Wild video from last year? The homeowner spent nearly two months and $10,000 to hook up and synchronize 25,000 lights to Trans-Siberian Orchestra's "Wizard in Winter" - Source: Snopes. Well here at Green Head HEADquarters I don't have that kind of money nor the time, so I found the next best thing. If you want to inexpensively synchronize your holiday lights to match the rhythm and music of 20 Christmas carols you need to get the cool and easy to setup Mr. Christmas - Lights and Sounds of Christmas ($130). It's basically a small electronic device with six power outlets and a speaker that you can either stake into the ground or mount on the side of your. Simply plug your light strands and assorted light-up decorations into the power outlets, select the music you want to play or set it to random and watch in sheer awe as your house begins to animate in a full blown holiday extravaganza of dancing lights and music! I'm sure your neighbors will absolutely love it as well. lol very cool.
- Plug strands of lights or lighted items in the 6 outlets with circuits coordinated to the onboard music
- Each outlet can power up to 1,200 miniature lights (a total of 7,200 lights)
- Each catalog of 10 songs plays randomly, or specific songs can be selected at the touch of a button
- Full volume control
- Onboard outdoor speaker
- Song select
- 3 selectable modes
- weatherproof & waterproof

To Light Engineer, vague & insulting? I think you may be taking this gadget to personally. I believe a lot of people will find this is a great way of playing w/the concepts before spending $500.00+ on a high end,computerized system.
Happy Holidays!07\'
Thoughts anyone?????
If someone has found an easy way to do this, let me know. --Greg-- Greg.Ca@Comcast.net--Greg--
Although this unit is only as 6 channel unit, it seems to rock!!
In the past few weeks, I have bought a least 5 lets each of yellow, red, blue, green, orange and purple led christmas light sets. The main cost has been the cost of the lights NOT the hardware. Now just waiting for the day after thanksgiving to set up my display. Rockin and Rollin in Highlands Ranch Colorado. --Greg--

Anyways, I opened the machine carefully and soldered a shielded cable to the speaker terminals. (Remember to solder the 'braid' or ground wire to the speaker lead marked negative) and the other TWO wires together to the other speaker terminal. This way you can still have audio from the machine and both left and right audio are soldered together and ready to go to your FM transmitter. Since this is a STEREO transmitter, you have to solder the TWO wires to the other speaker terminal. This way, the SAME sound will come out of BOTH right and left stereo speakers when people are driving by in their cars.
For further info email me at Greg.Ca@Comcast.net
or just search for it on costco.com....thanks again for the help
PS how did you weather proof the fm transmitter(the one with the microphone) thanks agiain
