Spent a couple of hours installing some cable suspension lighting in my apartment home theater... what do you think?



Some VHS quality 80's music video:


Lights are turned on and off by a $9 radio transmitter remote:

LOL thanks Very Happy the first pic I used Adobe Photoshop to overlay the screen shot with most of the lights off on top of the screen shot with all the lights on (everyone does this in theater magazines). I used a tripod to keep the camera in the same position for both shots, then merged them together (well, only the screen part).

$15??

That's cheap! Usually the individual lights themselves run more then that! Not to mention the wiring/balast/etc.

Nice!

Yeah they were only $15 each set - set comes with three 20 watt bulbs, hardware, cable, 60 watt transformer, etc. Usually these sets are $50-100 for the cheap kind. I was shocked when I saw it for this cheap.
