What is the change? You&#039;ll have to keep an eye on the <a href="http://ryanschristmaslights.com/2011/" >2011 photo gallery</a> page for addition of new photos in coming days.<br /><br />As in other years, the scheduled light up time will be at 8:30 pm on December 1.

		<content type="text/html" mode="escaped"><![CDATA[As of today the 2011 Christmas display is being gradually set up. The mains-power 240V AC controllers have been installed while the new 24V DC controllers are almost completed. They should be installed by the weekend along with the DC controllers which were introduced last year.<br /><br />A 2011 gallery page is <a href="http://ryanschristmaslights.com/2011/" >now available</a>, this year using a different page design. Let me know your comments on the new style of gallery. Former years continue to use an older design.]]></content>

		<title>New controlling hardware and website move</title>
		<link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.ryanschristmaslights.com/blog/index.php?entry=entry110910-232215" />
		<content type="text/html" mode="escaped"><![CDATA[New DC controllers from Light-O-Rama arrived this week. 2011 will use more DC control than ever before due to the safety benefits over 240v AC control. This means there are less 240v extension cord runs needed to get a working light show.<br /><br />I am now waiting on some replacement lights and low voltage cords to land in Australia sometime this month or in October and then I will have everying needed to make this year&#039;s display.<br /><br />The new FM transmitter has been powered and tested, and the range is more sufficient for passing cars.<br /><br />And on a different note, you may have noticed a migration message or small amount of downtime on this website. This is due to moving to an Australian-based web server for better speeds.]]></content>
