What's New at Animated Lighting

Animated Lighting is not just about Christmas.  Our products can be used to automate lights for almost any event 365 days a year.  To prove it, check out leaping arches and peacock.  Just imagine these in front of your home or business.

Animated Leaping Arches

This is an exciting lighting display that can be used for many events year-round. The arches are made with a backbone of powder coated steel and wrapped in the latest generation LEDs to give the effect of a sophisticated water fountain shooting streams of water sequenced to the music. In reality, each arch has an Animated Lighting controller turning on/off bands of lights to give the effect of water moving through the air.  Look carefully and you will notice the water even splashes when it hits the ground. The picture doesn't do it justice though.  Checkout the video by clicking here.  Be sure and checkout the all of our videos at http://www.animatedlighting.com/showcase/commercialshows.asp.

Animated Peacock

This "Big Bird" is illuminated with approximately 6,000 LED lights of multiple colors. There are 38 lighting channels controlling the feathers and the body which is 19'9" tall and 25'6" wide. A series of lighting routines run  in a random pattern so a viewer will not see the same lighting sequence.

Say Hello to Light Show In A Box, Junior!

Ever heard of our Light Show In A Box (LSIAB)?  Think of it as a magical device that has all the built in sequences you need to make your lights really dance.  This product has been a great success because it is so easy to use and removes all the guesswork for the customer. 

The 16 channel, 30 amp LSIAB product has been around for a while and when we weren't looking, our engineering staff created a half size relative we call LSIAB Jr.  It does almost everything as the original but there are fewer built in sequences and it controls eight channels with a maximum capacity of 20 amps.  Want more information?  Click here for our website.

Animated Mini Trees

We're rolling out our latest 'Just Add Power' product called Animated Mini Trees.  Four 3-D wireframe trees, each wrapped with our premium LED miniature lights and mated with our Christmas Kit.  All you do is take it out of the box, give it some power and wow your neighbors.  Click here for more information on our Animated Mini Trees.

LED Christmas Lights

As we strive to conserve electricity, Light Emitting Diode (LED) Christmas lights are the real trend of the future but are already here, today.  The colors are deep and pure, they last 50 times longer than typical incandescent Christmas lights and use 90% less power.  What's not to like about this technology?  The good news is LED Christmas lights are arriving now at Animated Lighting.  The bad news is the industry anticipates a shortage because of high demand as we get closer to the Christmas season.  If you anticipate needing a large quantity of LED Christmas lights for this year, let us know now.

 
More Songs, Special Programming

For 2007 we are offering many more songs and programming services to our customers.

  • This is the perfect time of year to roll out some fun party songs already synchronized to the lights.  Check out the latest list of available tunes at our website.  It's being added to almost daily.   If you have want us to sequence a tune that hasn't been done yet, let us know now because we will not accept any new orders for this feature year after August 30.
  • Don't forget about our Custom Programming if you don't see what you want.  We offer services such as programming Start and Stop times, lighting effects between songs, lighting effects after songs, custom audio for your display, etc.
