Hi guys,

I'm electrically challenged, so I'd thought I'd throw this question out there.

I plan on getting several (4?) sound detecting lights(12V) each with their own
power adapter to use on my juke.  Would I just plug all these into a outlet strip or
is there some way to "combine" them using just one plug.

Guess I'm trying to avoid having a million things plugged into my power outlet(s)

Thanks in advance for your help.

 Like you stated, just plug them all into a dedicated power strip or you could wire them all to your PC power supply 12v line, assuming it was large enough to handle it. Depending on the power requirments of the light, this would be the ideal way to go IMO.

Another option would be to use a stand alone 12v power supply similar to this one.

Thanks for the input mountain.  Not sure which approach I'll take yet.  But I'm thinking about it.

Bought some more stuff  and cut the curved top for the juke. (More of a pain than I thought it would be)

I hope to get some good progress done this weekend and will update some pics.

Managed to get the top and bottom of the top cut today.  These will also hold the marquee in place so I routed a channel in both pieces.   I also got two of the front panels "fitted".  They'll be covered in vinyl latter.

Here are a few pics to show the "progress"  ::)  ( Is it me, or does everything take alot longer to do than
I think it will? )

BASS!:
You are flying, I wish I were that fast, you do what it takes a lot of us a year in a month  ;D keep it up, and love the documentation.
