  • Unfortunately I had to make this one a dislike due to the fact the packethead provides no information how he did this for fellow enthusiasts who cannot affford his commercial venture, coupled with the fact that not even on his commercial web site does he indicate how expensive it would be to produce the video above. Just another teaser on youtube. Waste of my time as a homeowner if I cannot afford your commercial product to reproduce this. Next time just say so.

  • @xtremejeeps Actually try contacting him through the website. I am an average homeowner and this year I am venturing into pixels and have decided on using equipment from him, so we CAN afford it. While not quite 2,000 pixels of the above example, my 1360 pixel tree should be rather good, at least I hope it will :)

    Hi Xtreme, Glad that you liked the video. At the time i put this together it was highly experimental and somethign that was a hobby. Very quickly a lot of people got in touch and asked me to build them one. And it became a commerical reality, which supports not just my family, but several familys as well.. On our web site there is no pricing, ( because every job is differnet ), but we do reply to every contact made, if you have some requirements please let us know.

  • @xtremejeeps we are all different in what budgets we have and are 'allowed' to spend on our christmas displays, there are many of us who do have the budget to put on a display at this level and mrpacketheads solutions are by far the best out there. You do have many options of building this type of display yourself 'on the cheap' but I think that would be out of your budget as well.

  • Maybe just a hint at how this was done? Maybe?

  • This is unbelievable! No light-o-rama controller can do that! I am truly Amazed and wish I hadn't wasted my money on my 16 channel controller...I don't know if I could ever afford your system nor even understand how you sequenced the light individually. Truly Beautiful!!!

  • Silver Dollar City could take some tips from you!

  • wow its AMAZING where did you get these? :)

  • Holy xmas!!! you could almost watch TV on that thing in the off season!!!!

  • Fantastic effort went into this! Must have costed a Fortune. lol

  • OMG Packet, I have put emphasis on my static tree for over 18 years and will be doing an LOR Mega Tree this year. Your tree is very inspirational. Best Mega Tree I have ever seen by far.

    All I can say is that it is simply spectacular.

    Take Care Mate,

  • dang it looks good im getting creative this christmas im buying my first light o rama

  • hey where did you do this at? i would love to take my gf just to witness this beautiful event...it would be really romantic i think n maybe add some popcorn :P

  • Any Update on Cost?

  • O Mega Tree !

    O Mega Tree !

    How bright are

    Are all the lights you wear.

    *****

  • thats nice.. thanks!

  • I am a PC member and would love some info on this ..!!!!

  • what was the cost before you get our hopes up?

  • That is how all mega trees should be! Way to go! What a great edition to anyone's display that would be.

  • thanks

  • Mega trees of mega trees, great job!

    Is it done with Galaxia or your own homegrown concept?

  • no, this is my own design, i'll be selling them soon!

  • cool, how you going to market them?

  • Great job.... it looks amazing.

  • most amazing animated feature I have seen hands down. Ron D

  • thanks Ron.

  • Man your tree rocks!! awesome work

  • man, i hope you got a deal on those waterproof RGB LEDs :)

    tight work !

  • Now that's a Mega Tree. Excellent work!

  • Wow dude.. I could just sit outside your house ALL night and watch that... Very well done. Does it run off music or is it just the lights by themselves?

  • He he boring yeah right. This is incredible! Individual addressable tri-color leds.. that's a dream come true for any lighting fanatic. I guess in a way it is almost a tree shaped 3D monitor.

  • absolutly amazing it is hypnotic

  • Wow, how do you even begin to sequence 2000 lights? My 24 channel setup took about 4min per sec to sequence!

  • not one pixel at a time!

  • We don`t need any street lights, thats for sure. Even light up out Forecourt at the servo.

  • Nice work, I hope the neighbors appreciate it!

  • they may not appreciate the traffic!

  • Looks great. Work of art!

  • art meets engineering meets science.. and this is what happens.

  • Simply FANTABULOUS!!!!

    Puts my vixen sequences to shame, LOL. A beautiful light show, and a pleasure to watch :)

  • Hi, The hardware is our own build, and these are our prototypes.. Early next year, the entire system will be avaialble for general purchase.

    This is a hobby that got a littel out of control.

  • a little?  very well done.

  • Unreal!

    Do you have some tech info on it - like hardware & software used?
