Buying this as a gift for husband. Should I get 30 pin or usb? How many transmitters do I need? (Buying 2 lights)

Whether to get the 30 pin or USB will depend on the CD/DVD/reciever you are connecting to - you'll have to look at the back. You should only need one transmitter, the directions will tell you how to set it up for multiple speaker-lights

U don't need ballast on this one. But it gets hot.... Look for slave flash and its almost the same but u need a slave transmitter/receiver

I never had both lites on at the same time but I've had them blinking alternatively red/green. I put a new battery in the transmitter and I think it helped but still happened occasionally. I re-positioned the receiver to be more 'in line" with the transmitter and messed with the antenna and have no more problem. In my opinion, light issues are due to poor signal. My "signal" passes thru one wall/door at a distance of less than 40'. At 50' I had problems. Try different (closer) locations for the receiver. I was about to add wire to the antenna to see if that would help but after reposition, didn't need to. I never had both lites on at the same time but I've had them blinking alternatively red/green.

Sorry to take so long I have been traveling, yes you could use the remote for more that one bulb, the only thing is that they would probably get out of sync ie: one or more bulbs would not get every command and you would not be able to make them all blue for example simultaneously, if you were to use one remote for several locations in your home, yes it would control them all These are very nice and considering the price and features they are exceptional, just don't expect them to behave like a DMX DJ system. Buy some you won't be disappointed considering the value and results, remember these are mood lights NOT reading lamps or suitable for DJ use.

These simply repeat whatever signal is put into it, with a power boost. This is useful for having only 1 controller, but using these you can send that signal with plenty of power to however many strips and repeaters you want. For my build, I used a 360w power supply and 5 of these repeaters to power and send signals to about 10 RGB LED strips (2 strips per repeater) with just 1 controller. What I used: http://www.amazon.com/SUPERNIGHT-Switch-Power-Supply-Switching/dp/B008HARHN8 Edit: On the output side of the repeater, you can see two 'power' terminals. I wired two repeaters from each terminal from the above mentioned power supply. Alternatively, you can also use http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B7BGAXW (though I've had mixed results with plug compatibility). For me, I have my repeaters wired directly into this cable: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008LR6EAY, which then goes to a connector that attaches to the lights. Overall I would suggest using a DC power supply if you plan on using more than 1 of these.

One. If you have more than one device you want to attach to the transmitter you should consider an HDMI switch in addition to the Nyrius. Note: the Nyrius will still only transmit one source - whichever you have selected on the HDMI switch.

You need a 4 pin brake , turning , parking light connection on your car or truck . Just plug the transmitter in and it sends signal to the lights . Make sure you use care when attaching magnetic bases , use a little duct tape to secure for greater holding power

We did not have good ones...looked at pic plus so called directions and worked it out. I had to go to the store to get some good wire so I could tie all he black and white to create just one for each as there were so many to connect...normally this is already done for you by most company's , so this is poor to leave to the consumer esp if you know nothing about electrical . If you do that give yourself enough slack as it's hard to connect if you have to hold it up close. Good luck...light is nice though and looks good

Good morning, I would suggest buying a transformer that is rated 100 a watts more than your light fixtures. Also, if you are going to add any additional lights, now woul be a good time to figure that in do you don't have to buy an additional transformer down the road. Hope this helps.

You need a gateway. They sell a gateway with two bulbs. You can THEN buy these extra bulbs and connect up to, I believe, 8 bulbs all together. The gateway needs to be plugged into not only an outlet but also to a router and/or modem. Make sure the extra bulbs you purchase are also TCP "Connect" and not just the TCP bulbs

If at all possible try to split in 2 directions so you have 2 power supplies, supplying 30 ft each. should keep the intensity bright. I used 2 strips off one power supply and had a great affect, only I did not tie them end to end as you would need to do, but the lights were very bright and worked very well with one power supply. hope this helps, good luck.

I second the suggestion of a universal remote. You can find them rather inexpensively. If you want to use two remotes then you will need two of the transmitter and 2/3 AA battery combinations. Of course one comes with the unit. A second one will cost about $20 here on amazon. It might be a little less expensive to go with a universal remote. If another concern drives you to want to use two remotes, be sure you get your extra transmitter with the same frequency as your unit. There are only two frequencies.

I am using the 60w adapter to connect two of the 5 meter hitlights units together (Linked at the bottom of my reply). It works fine. I opted for the 60w adapter, because the 5m hitlight LED strips are 1.5 w/ft, and they are 16.4 ft long, which actually totals 24.6 watts. A 48 w adapter probably would work, but I opted for a little insurance room.HitLights Cool White SMD3528 LED Light Strip - 300 LEDs, 16.4 Ft Roll, Cut to length - 5000K, 82 Lumens / 1.5 Watts per foot, Requires 12V DC

I would say you need the USB controller because one side is USB the other fits into the sign it self like say a phone USB plug in other words I don't see a way to plug it in without the USB. Also it changes the speed and the flashing type. Of course that can also be done with the remote control. I use mine at the Library I work at, we love it, we get comments on it all the time.

I would recommend a dedicated Yongnuo transceiver. "built in is optical"....which means you will need a master flash, and it is only line of sight. Yongnuo currently only offers one optical master flash the 568II. Supposedly the 600ex is coming soon.However, with their 622 triggers, it is a radio based transmission, not optical line of sight. The 622 transmitter works amazingly well.

what other lighting products work with canon t2i,,,i was checking out cowboy.com and they have numerous kits with transmitters and recievers do any of these work or are there limitations

You will need to purchase two light bulbs. We are now using standard 60 watts in ours. You may want to read manufactures suggestion first.
