DJ Lighting Equipment is a very important aspect of any disco equipment setup and one which should not be overlooked or underestimated. However, once you have a good idea of the available options you will find that it is relatively easy to equip yourself with some great lighting solutions at affordable prices.

There are many types of DJ lights available and they differ greatly in price point so it is a good idea to plan out your requirement and understand that if you only ever do small or sometimes medium sized venues then you will NOT need a massive amount of lights or a big lighting rig as these may only get used a few times a year. In fact it may be more realistic and beneficial to buy a few good effect lights, a couple of moving head scanners, a laser and a smoke machine and on the rare occasion that you may require more lighting then you can always hire a few more lights from your local DJ warehouse.

If you are a newbie to disco lighting then you should gain a little more knowledge through reading the next part of this article which gives you the options for choosing DJ lights and lighting packages.

1) Moonflower Lights (Gobo) - This light produce patterns through the lens and can be very effective.

2) Scanners - Available as Fixed and Moving Head lighting units and these are probably the most popular and used the most throughout the mobile disco and nightclub scene. A scanner DJ light can be linked to one another, in a daisy chain, and attached to a lighting controller (DMX controller unit) and the linked units will work as a synchronised effect.

3) DJ Laser Lights - A laser light produces either fixed pattern effect in single or multi colours (requires multiple heads) and the more advanced units can produce some amazing animations which are typically controlled via a laptop running a DMX interface.

4) DJ Black Lights and UV Lights - These produce fluorescent and black light effects such as making any white clothing you wear stand out brightly. These Black Lights are perfect for mobile disco, home and bedroom, and nightclubs.

5) Party Disco Lights - These lights are widely available and offer an affordable solution to house parties, small disco's and other light applications. You can buy a complete Disco Party Pak from online DJ suppliers and these can turn any small venue into a flashy, colourful and atmospheric party palace.

There are many more options available including light boxes and LCD display panels, strobe lighting and Beacons also Oil Gobo Lights to name but a few. However, the main items listed above (1 to 5) are by far the most widely used lighting equipment and if you opt for a combination of those lights then you will not go far wrong.

Types of Outdoor Christmas Lights Checklist

ItemTitle

So you have decided to put on the best Christmas outdoor lighting display on the block this year. You have started a plan, measure the places the lights are to go. The next important step is to decide what types of lights to use.

Here is a checklist

- C7bulbs 2 inch long, large, bright, visible, traditional, and easy to change. Their big advantage is that when one light fails the rest of the string stays alight. This style of light comes with a number of different sockets on a string, which makes it easy to determine how long a string you need to fit the space for the lights. These lights can also be purchased with the cord separate to the bulbs, enabling you to choose the lighting effect required. They can be expensive to run with high power consumption, unless you choose the C7 bulb shape fitted with LED's. A twinkle style is also available for this type of string (this is where every say 6th bulb will turn on and off giving a twinkling impression).

- C9 bulbs 3 inch long with the same comments and advantages as the C7, only with a larger bulb and thus larger light source.

- Mini-Lights- These are the smaller lights traditionally using small incandescent bulbs, but many now come with LED's for outdoor Christmas tree lights. The major problems with this type of light string is that when a bulb fails it takes out a section or the entire string, making it difficult and time consuming to find the dead bulb and replace it. The cords come in white, green or brown to match the background you wish to put them against. Mini lights are great in that, the sets can be easily connected together or connected to a controller that will turn them on and off to music, or a programmed flashing display. There are many different color options for fairy lights from clear and white through to almost any color you can think of.

- LED lights are available in both the traditional C7 and C9 styles and also in mini or fairy lights. Led have the advantage of being low on power consumption and cool to the touch, much safer with children around. LED lights also last a very long time and are sturdier than incandescent bulbs, avoiding the need for bulb replacement. Mini Lights are the most common form of outdoor LED Christmas lights about, although more types are arriving each year as technology and cost improves. The most amazing LED lights are the color changing ones, generally in blue/green shades or red/orange shades where the lights gradually change through a number of colors. A very cool effect.

- Solar Lights- solar outdoor Christmas lights are becoming more and more common. They are good for places where it is hard to get power to. They are usually LED lights, charged up by the sun during the day and alight at night. In places where there is not much sun during the day they are unlikely to get charged up sufficiently.

- Net Lights - these are great for bushes and shrubs, the lights are connected together in a grid arrangement, making it easy to just drape over a plant giving the effect of equally spaced lights effortlessly. Usually LED lights.

- Rope lights - This style has LED lights encased in vinyl cord looking like a rope, hence the name outdoor Christmas rope lights. It makes storage and installation very easy and produces a softer light. These have the advantages of LED lights, without the storage issues of fairy or mini lights. As mini lights this style can also be selected to have different light display patterns such as flashing, twinkle or chaser.

- Animated Lights - These are shapes such as angels, stars, nativity scenes that have LED lights placed around the edge in varying colors to illuminate the shape. There are many different shapes available.

- Shimmering Spheres - These glowing balls and come in several different sizes. The ball consists of 100 or so mini lights connected together to make a ball shape, when illuminated it produces a shimmering effect to add to you Outdoor lighting display.

I hope you find this check list useful to help you find the right type of outdoor Christmas lights for your yard.

Plus Size String Bikinis - How to Shop For Them and How to Save Money in the Process

Plus Size String Bikinis - How to Shop For Them and How to Save Money in the Process





Click Here FLV MPlayer - Free Download

ItemTitle

Plus size string bikinis and swimwear are available in so many colors, styles, and sizes these days, that shopping is simplified, especially when you shop online and take advantage of all the discounted prices.

Whether you wear an extra large, 1x, 2x, or larger, you can easily purchase bikinis that flatter your voluptuous body. While Hollywood fashion designers might try to trick you into thinking that thin is in, when you talk to various groups of men, you will quickly learn that many men prefer women who are not just skin and bones.

One of the best choices for a plus size bikini wearer is the string bikini. It's a derivative of the full brief bikini, but it rests high on the thighs and gives the plus size woman full coverage of her tummy. Even if a woman has large thighs, a string bikini complements the leg. In some circles, this type of bikini bottom in called a Tanga. Think of it as a bikini that gives you more back support.

When shopping for string bikinis, the plus size woman should look for solid colors rather than prints, florals, or stripes. Although bright yellows, oranges, and reds tend to attract attention to the bikini wearer, if you walk tall, and hold your head back, you will have the same flare that skinny runway models have. It's all in the perception and a reflection of how confident you feel while wearing your string bikini.

Of importance, is that as a plus size woman, you should choose a bikini bottom that is not a thong; rather, select a Lycra or stretch fabric that is ample for your body size, but that does not totally skimp on the coverage. The strings that tie high on your thighs will draw the eye upward.

Definitely, after you've purchased your body-flattering bikini, try to resist covering your body with a pareo or a large swimsuit wrap. To enhance your body style, choose a spa-type beach robe in a very light color and fabric that doesn't tie with a sash around your waist.

In addition, most Internet-based swimwear sites have a sizing chart with recommended bathing suit styles and colors to choose from. Look at the selections with the photos of women who have body styles similar to yours before making your buying decisions. Most online swimwear sites make it easy to see the colors, styles, and sizes that suit your body type.

Further, many online bikini swimwear sites have a section especially for those women who wish to choose a figure shaper bikini-bust minimizer, tummy appearance reducer, slimmer looking hips, and so forth. Check out all the categories online before making your selections. It's easier to shop online to get what you want, than it is to spend hours at the mall and coming home disappointed with the limited selection at the stores.

Clip-On Christmas Tree Candle Holders - An Old Favorite Makes a Comeback

Clip-On Christmas Tree Candle Holders - An Old Favorite Makes a Comeback



ItemTitle

Christmas tree candles? Clip-On Christmas tree candle holders? Ask most shoppers if they have ever seen real candles on a Christmas tree, and you are likely to draw a blank.

But whether it's furniture, home furnishings or Christmas decorating, Vintage is hot and getting hotter. The fact that traditional Christmas candles and old-fashioned clip on candle holders are making a comeback underscores the popularity of vintage and antique themes in Christmas decorating.

Christmas Candles and Candle Clips were a standard every Christmas season before houses were wired and electric Christmas lights came on to the market. Generations of children grew up with Christmas candles on their tree every year. Ask a great-grandparent or older neighbor about their memories of candle-powered Christmases past and they're likely to tell you how beautiful and unforgettable the experience was. After all, a tree bathed in natural candle light is an impressive, mesmerizing sight.

Compared to today's LED Christmas lights, vintage and antique Christmas candles couldn't be more low-tech. The antique candles used in the old days were about 1/2 in. in diameter and 4 in. long. To hang them on the tree, you used an adjustable clip-on candle holder, also calls a candle clip. The base of the clip grips the candle and holds it upright.

The pendulum Christmas tree candle holder was another way of hanging your candles on the tree. It grips the candle and has a stem which loops over the tree limb. A decorative weight at the bottom of the stem balances the pendulum and keeps the candle straight.

There are several great features that make clip on Christmas candle holders and pendulum candle holders an appealing alternative to other kinds of Christmas lights:

They're low-tech. As mentioned, there's nothing simpler than candlepower. The candle clips and pendulum candle holders are straightforward and easy to use. They're adjustable and perfectly functional. They're reusable. Pack up your clip-on candle holders and pendulum Christmas candle holders when you take down your tree at the end of the season. They're 100% reusable and should give you years of service. They're energy-efficient. Christmas tree candles burn on air, not electricity or batteries. They won't consume a single watt, so they're even greener than LED Christmas lights. They're vintage. Christmas candles have enormous appeal as a vintage or antique decorating element. They work as part of a Victorian Christmas, Country Christmas, or primitive Christmas design theme. You can also use them with a "dressed-up," formal look or with a German Christmas theme. They're absolutely beautiful. The quality of natural candlelight is so much richer and warmer than LED Christmas lights or incandescent Christmas string lights. Gather around your tree in a darkened room and light the candles one-by-one. You'll immediately notice the non-mechanical, natural flicker and radiant glow your candles cast into the room. They're a way to connect to Christmas traditions from years past. When you gather around to light the Christmas candles on your tree, think about your grandparents and other forbears, here or in the Old Country. They experienced the same delight at the sight of their Christmas tree that you are experiencing now. You are breathing new life into a wonderful old tradition.

Maybe you are thinking about taking your Christmas tree off the grid and switching to natural candlelight this year. You may opt for Christmas Tree Candles because of the tradition, because you like the look or for any one of several other reasons. But remember: Safety has to be your top priority. If you use the candles carelessly, you could cause a fire. Be sure to take your time, position the candles carefully and use common sense. And only use the candles when you are in the room. Never leave the tree unattended.

Since Christmas Candles faded into obsolescence around the time of World War I when electric lights came onto the market, it's not easy to locate them. It's next to impossible to find them at a hardware store, candle shop or even a specialty shop. However, they are still being made in Germany. Find a reliable web dealer in the U.S. who imports Christmas Tree Candles and genuine German-made Candle Holders. If you live in the U.K., Australia, Canada, New Zealand or elsewhere, pick a U.S. web shop with experience selling to your country.

Vintage Christmas candlepower is not for everybody. But as more consumers look for ways to simplify Christmas and focus on the essentials, it's an appealing low-tech alternative. The experience of your Christmas tree awash in natural candle light will stay with you long after the holidays are over.

Advantages of Using LED Lights For Christmas


ItemTitle

With the holidays just around the corner, it's time to think about putting up the Christmas lights. Here are some of the many advantages to using LED lights instead of old bulb based lights:

Inexpensive

Compared to traditional light bulbs, LED Christmas lights are usually a little less expensive when you first purchase them. Since LED lights are typically less expensive to manufacture, transport and package, the savings is passed on to the consumer in the up front cost.

More Reliable

When you buy a string of traditional Christmas lights, you know that you will need to go through and check every bulb to make sure it works and won't keep the entire string from lighting up. Many years, you'll need to replace at least a few bulbs before your lights will work. Since LED's are so much more reliable, it's likely that you won't need to endure this process again.

Lasts Longer

LED lights for critical applications such as for roadside lights, car lights or construction lights can last for years and year. However, since Christmas lights are only used once a year, for just a few weeks or just a month, and then only for part of the night, these LED's can last for many Christmases, and it is unlikely you'll need to buy new ones again for quite some time. Also, because LED's are so reliable, you can enjoy great cost savings since you don't need to replace them often, when compared to other types.

Smaller

Incandescent lights, even the smallest ones are several times larger than your typical LED lights. This means less weight and less strain on your back when you are hoisting those on to your tree, roof or walls. Smaller also means that these lights will store easier and take up less room.

Less Energy

By using LED lights, you can get the same or more light while using less energy. LED's are highly energy efficient and therefore you will save on electricity cost.

Brighter

LED lights are brighter and the light is stronger than traditional light bulbs.

Battery Powered

Want to light up your front yard this Christmas? Consider LED Christmas lights that use batteries for their power. This is far safer, easier to set up and less costly than using traditional lights.

Flexibility

LED Christmas lights can be easily dimmed, turned on and off and can change colors more easily than other types.

So, the next time you're considering getting out those bulky old Christmas lights, consider upgrading to LED, they are safer, more energy efficient, cost less over time, brighter, smaller, more flexible, more reliable and last longer. What's not to like?

How to Install Footwell Lighting that Dims with Dome Light in a 2006-2011 Honda Civic Coupe



Cost: Around -30 Difficulty: Intermediate Required Skills: partial disassembly of a car's interior, and use of a soldering iron This is my first how-to video, so please bear that in mind when you watch the video. I've been wanting to install footwell lighting in my car (a 2009 Civic Coupe) for a little while, and instead of just doing it, I decided that I should record my progress and make a video of it for YouTube. Well, here it is. This modification wasn't nearly as difficult as it was time consuming. I mention in the video that it takes 1-2 hours to complete, however this is if you have access to all your materials at one time. I spread this out over a few days and ended up spending much more time then I thought it would take, just because of my start-and-stop schedule. Basically, what makes these footwell lights special is that they are tapped from the dome light's power, so they will dim in and out with it. It took me a very long time to find the information on the series of tubes that is the Internet that showed where the dome light's wires were. I have to thank the people at 8thcivic.com for contributing to a forum that eventually gave me all the info I needed. TO ADD A SEPARATE SET OF LIGHTS that stays on whenever the ignition is on, use a fuse tap (which can be found at most auto parts stores) of the correct size. If I remember correctly, this is for the ATM fuses. The fuse tap does not need to be low-profile like the fuses are in the car. Tap the radio fuse ...

How to String Lights on an Outdoor Tree


ItemTitle

No matter if you about to string lights on an outdoor tree as a Christmas decoration or as a year round decoration, there are a few things that you may want to know that will make the task much easier. First, string lights on an outdoor tree is not just a Christmas decoration. Many shopping centers, hotels and other businesses use clear string lights on outdoor trees throughout the entire year. Many homeowners are doing the same because the string lights on outdoor trees provide peaceful and soothing lighting while adding beauty to their landscape.

Before you rush to the store to purchase of these lights for your outdoor tree, there is a couple of things that you should do first that will possibly save you time later on. First, you will obviously want to decide which tree or trees that you plan on decorating with the string lights. Because they require electricity, you should locate the nearest power outlet and determine the length of the extension cord that you will need. Next, using any type of string, wrap the string around the tree where you would like the lights to go. Then measure the string to determine the length of light that you will need for your outdoor tree. Doing those two things add very little time to your project, but it may save you an extra trip or two to the store later on. Besides using a ladder, a PVC pipe can make adding the lights to an outdoor tree much, much easier. Depending on the height of the tree, pick up a suitable length of PVC pipe that will reach the top of the tree. Normally a 10 foot PVC pipe is around 2 dollars. You will need to add a simple hook to one end of the PVC pipe. A clothes hanger or any heavy duty wire will work. Once you have your list complete, shopping for the lights on string will be easy because there will be no guessing work on what lengths to buy.

Now that you have everything that you need, you should be ready to add the lights on your outdoor tree. Before you add any lights, you should plug them in first to make sure that they all work. Once you are ready, start at the top of the tree. You can either use a ladder or the PVC pipe to reach the top of the tree. Then as you work your way down, you will want to circle the lights around the outdoor tree. The space between each row of string lights does not have to be perfect. Once the lights are wrapped all the way down your outdoor tree, you will want to tuck the string lights into the tree, just a little bit. If you live in a windy area, you may need to secure the string lights with small pieces of wire. Once it gets dark, it will be easier to make the necessary adjustments. The end result will be beautiful string lights on an outdoor tree that provide a soothing lighting effect to your yard.

First Morning of 2009 - Slightly Less Sleepy Lyre / Harp Playing 2



My new years eve was spent in a very calm way, with three friends in a small cabin far from civilization, parties, traffic and fireworks. With the amazing stars visible far from city lights, we had all the fireworks we needed! I woke up early and borrowed a Lyre for some sleepy improvisation (previous clip). It is a brand new instrument for me, I have hardly made up my mind on how to hold it. When people started to wake up, so did I and the playing was a bit more lively as well. A greeting goes out to my friends I did not get to spend a nice time with. I hope your new year started off well!

Christmas Rope Lights - Ideas That Can Brighten Your Christmas


ItemTitle

If you want Christmas lights that can be used with ease, not only outdoors, but also indoors, then, Christmas rope lights are what you should opt for. The tubing provided in these lights is the reason for their flexibility and versatility. There is no dearth to the amount of decorations you can do with the help of these that come in a variety of sizes and colors.

Idea #1: Accentuate the windows and roofs

Opt for Christmas rope lights if you are on the lookout for good alternatives to string lights. As compared to vintage Christmas lighting, these can be laid straighter. They come equipped with special clips that help hold them in place when you use them to accentuate the roofing of your house and the windows. You can also use them in conjunction with string lights for a better effect.

Idea #2: Create Christmas shapes

The best part about Christmas rope lights is that they are neither too tough nor too soft. The tubing of the light is such that you can mold them into shapes of your choice. If you want to create an outline of the Christmas tree in your yard, then, you can consider using these Christmas rope lights. You can also use them in varying colors to create candy canes, bells, stockings, trees and stars. The mounting clips available in the market today can be used to hang the various shapes created by these lights outdoors.

Idea #3: Accentuating the various Christmas art pieces

Have you created a snowman in the yard? Do you have a replica of the snowflake in the garden? You can highlight these art pieces by accentuating those using Christmas rope lights. If you want to create an outline of the hedges and fence surrounding your house, there can be no better alternative to these lights. Christmas rope lights, in combination with string lights in green and red colors, can be used to highlight the driveway to your house and even the sidewalks.

Idea #4: Decoration Indoors

If you thought Christmas rope lights could weave their magic only outdoors, then, you are in for a surprise! These lights are great options for indoor decorations. If you want to decorate the doorway of your room or the children's room in a unique way, then, use them alongside string lights. You can also decorate the railings of the staircase, mantels and other indoor artifacts using Christmas rope lights.
