WAAAAAYY too much time on their hands, Is that seriously for real?
It was pretty funny.

They had a guy from Florida on some show the other day that did that. I think he said he had a $1,000 power bill. Don't remember how many lights, but 170 extension cords. All controlled through the computer.

I was really annoyed before I realized there was music to it. Now i'm just slightly annoyed.

The way he has it setup though, at first it kindof reminded me of the amity ville horror.

that excited me.

Wow, I thought the family across the lake was good.

[Rob]

?

[DEV0 E30]

My bad, didn't specify. Across the lake from my house. They have a 40-50 foot American flag of lights and a whole bunch of other things that can be seen from the main road.

Do you remember where specifically? It might have been a house near mine in Sarasota, the thing is insane and plays along with Christmas carols (midis).

Yeah I saw this, too cool :)

The controllers that he used are only ~$250 for a 16 plug box. Not bad really, considering you can use it every year and program different stuff every year.

James, lets do this at your place. I'm down with helping you set it up.

Thats badass, I don't care what anyone says.
