Sounds like it's pretty much way outside of my ability level then. If it doesn't involve pushing a button, or pulling a string I'm pretty much useless.   :D

It would be cool, but probably no demand. My marquee is one of my wifes carvings. I'm going to inset this thing a bit and light it from the bottom front lip of my marquee with Randys NovaMatrix. Thats why I would like to change the colors sometimes...Problem is this is a very untraditional marquee and the demand for color changes on this product will be very little. Unless someone could think of a reason for Randy to use RGB's on this product...He would have one sold for sure! :)

What about EL wire? Purchase three colors in the length you need and the appropriate support hardware and you have your RGB coloring. I've seen systems online that support 3v, 5v, and 12v power configuration. They use converters which up the voltage before hitting the EL wire. If you want it controlled by an LED-Wiz, you'll need a relay depending on where in the power system you install.

Fozzy: 100% agreed. Will left out his mistake in his first posting. That was a much bigger mistake than the actual wiring mistake.

That RGB strip BobA linked a few posts up looks like what you need.

I think that's why you never fried a GGG marquee light, and this bloke did :P
