I make it a point to use LED and florecent 99%, so when using the green outdoor cords from wally world I don't worry so much about the gauge because of the lower load on them. They blend nicely, and if I remember a 50 footer is around 9 bucks.

I use the izombie unit and a few 250 watt work lights in tree and top of basket ball hoop. Works great. Plus one extra plus that no other solution offers, I get this up first thing, and take them off the lightening controller and just plug them in, lights up the entire yard for night set up and takedown.

I used a single Chauvet 2000s Technostrobe positioned next to a speaker playing my thunder track. The strobe was set on the "Sound" option and produced amazingly synched flashes to my track!

I'd have to agree with jrzmac on this one! Incidently, I believe it was Meltdown211 who had the video of the strobes. Next year I hope to get one of the controllers and maybe even a 2nd strobe as jrzmac suggests!
