[SML] Fire Units

[Mike Katz]

We have done the effect using RC4 4 dimmer packs and a  battery The initial
investment is about $1000 for a transmitter and a 4 dimmer wireless unit.
RC4 rents them as well. We used a Harbor freight wireless emergency car
starter for the power since it had 12 volt plugs and the charger built in
and it cost under 50 bucks. You can use leds or birdies or any 12 volt lamp
as the lamps. The current series even has a flicker effect built in so it
is easy to make fire work.
