Laser Christmas outdoor projectors..
HI All
I was prompted to investigate these - we like to illuminate the outside (& inside!) of the house, and these looked like a good idea. The one I purchased allegedly had two lasers (red & green) and four different effects. Trouble is - this one seems to be faulty - the ebay seller has refunded my money (bless 'em). The unit has a waterproof momentary push-button on the back, it seems to need a press in order to start the thing working - which is kind of inconvenient as our outdoor lights are usually on a timer, and, even if this unit was working properly, I can't see me nipping outside every night just to push the button! Just wondering if anybody else has one of these new-fangled units - and whether theirs starts automatically when mains is switched on, or if it's a elfin-safety feature of the unit that it requires a digit on the button to start the lasers? The very thin user manual also says that the unit needs to be switched 'off' to cool down for 30 minutes after 5 hours of running... this particular unit doesn't run for more than a minute or so before cutting out, so it's kind of academic g Any real-life experiences, please? Thanks Adrian |
