Animated Lighting

Christmas In A Box

Christmas In A Box enables you to turn ordinary light hangings on vertical structures such as Christmas trees, evergreens, large tree trunks, or the columns of a home or building into a highly entertaining lighting-and-music show with no programming required. You can also use the Christmas In A Box to drive the effects across our large family of Just Add Power products.

Easily expandable, you can re-purpose the controllers for use at Halloween, the Fourth of July, or any time of year by simply changing an SD card. You can pick from a variety of tunes and even add speakers or an FM transmitter to broadcast tunes to car radios.

We make it easy: Detailed instructions show you how to hang lights on your trees and columns in light "zones" to get the best animated lighting effect.

Deliver synchronized holiday music with your light effects: The Christmas In A Box with Music Synchronization is a separate product offering that delivers the same great light shows in synch with several classic holiday songs. You can output the music to speakers or use the Animated Lighting FM Transmitter to broadcast the tunes to car radios as they drive by!

Create your own custom music synchronized shows: Click here for details.

Use mini-lights, C7, C9, or LED light sets: No special light sets are required. In fact, the Christmas In A Box can work with the same standard mini-lights, C7, C9, LED, and rope lights you've used in recent years or that are available at any discount, department, or hardware store.

Include your own lighted tree toppers, lawn figurines, or other fixtures: Not just lights, the Christmas In A Box also includes open "channels" for connecting stars, deer, Santas, snowmen, and other lawn-oriented lights.

Decorate one tree or column or include several in your show: A single Christmas In A Box is capable of delivering its light show across several conical objects depending on their size. If you reach the light limit on your first controller, no problem! The Christmas In A Box Expansion Controllers easily connect to your main controller to handle a virtually unlimited number of trees or columns.

DMX: Your Christmas In A Box can also connect to our DMX Controller and then to various intelligent DMX lights, snow and fog machines.

Overview
Dan R. - Christmas 2023

Dan R. purchased only the Christmas In A Box product from our firm. All the other lighted items in this video were purchased from major retailers (Home Depot, Target, and so on). He hooked all these lighted items to just the one light controller, and look at all the synchronized musical movement achieved!

Dave M. - Christmas 2022

Dave M. utilized three fun products in our Christmas In A Box family for his 2022 holiday display. He has 16 standard lighting channels on his windows (standard Christmas In A Box). He has the programming for one Singing Reindeer Face that he purchased from us plus RGB light strings on the outline of his home (RGB controller, programming and RGB light strings from Animated Lighting). We think it shows you don't need a ton of lighting elements in your yard to have a fun show.

Steven K. - Christmas 2022

Stephen K has a display that includes not only a standard light show on his trees but also several JUST ADD POWER products. You will see Singing Reindeer Faces, a 10' RGB tree and 2 RGB Whimsy Trees. It is magical to us how the lighting reflects off the snow.

Fire Truck (Yes, Fire Truck)

These folks used our technology to light up their fire truck for the annual Christmas parade. We call that "thinking outside the Christmas-in-a-Box"!

Light Tunnel

Some customers want a less expensive way to do a "tunnel" when folks drive through their display. TK Lighting strung a cable on each side of the road and hung down LED light strings. It looks pretty cool when you drive through this as part of their light park.

Light Poles

We have had creative customers use their 16 lighting channels on all sorts of items. This is one where a customer wrapped light poles with different colors of LED strings. We thought this creativity was something you might want to see...

Mega Tree

Many of our customers have taken a flagpole or telephone pole and run 4 different colors of LED strings around the tree (Red, Green, Blue, White). This is quite easy to have as part of your lights and music display with our Christmas-in-a-Box.
