Overview

Unpacking Christmas in a Box

Christmas

I N   A   B O X

The Christmas In a Box is a plug-and-play package from Animated 

Lighting that enables you to build an exciting music and light show on 

bushes, trees, windows and any other illuminated items in your display. 

The Christmas In A Box includes an instructional video, installation 

examples, multiple “shows” to choose from, a FM transmitter so visitors 

can listen to your music via their FM radio, etc. 

This is the front of the Christmas in 

a Box.  This includes a 16-Channel 

Light Controller and one power cord 

dangle (15A).

For Christmas in a Box

To complete a Christmas In A Box installation, you will need to supply 

extension cords

 that can connect your lights from their hanging area to 

the Christmas In A Box Light Controller Box.  If you want to also broadcast 

music over speakers, you will need 

a pair of speakers and perhaps an 

amplifier

.  You will need to supply your own

 light strands, whether they 

be C9, C7, mini-lights or LED light strings 

(Consult Appendix A for more 

information if using your own light strands). Finally, you might need 

cable 

ties

 to secure lights to trees or other items plus 

duct tape

 for securing 

wires that cross walking paths.
