Today I finally wired my fence lights to P/Cs so I don't have to constantly change on/off times on the previously installed timers.

I’ve always been interested in all kinds of lighting, mainly incandescent and HID, and especially all kinds of sodium lamps (HPS/LPS). I’ll tolerate LED but I’m not a fan of it. I’m not proud to say that my city has Devolved to LED.

Modified a few sets of LED icicles to run off DC, and to prevent the LEDs from dying, i also added a dropper capacitor to reduce the LED current and intensity.
Will likely be doing more tomorrow.

A capacitor ^ .ug. might as well throw them away .LOL. since that makes them useless (ie: non-dimmable) .LOL.
Worked on a set of lights that I'm converting to LED (it'll get a pic at some point later when its done). Also put up multiple sets of lights outside.

If i was going to use them on a dimmer, then i might agree with you. But since that's not the case, they're useable .

We've lit another of the lamps that we got in our massive haul at the end of October. It's a 500W SBMV lamp Pictures to follow.

Today a huge shipment of a variety of bulbs arrived from eBay. I'll post pictures as soon as I get some spare time to get everything organized.

In my case, I want to be able to fade them on & off .LOL. much nicer effect than blinking straight on/off.. -------------- Yesterday: Put up more lights. Last night, finished off the last little step on converting 1 set of these , and 4 sets of these
