    What are you using to transfer the power to the lights as the carousel rotates?

    What setup did joey use? I have an idea for a display piece, and I need to look into rotating power distribution. Thanks.

    I have 2 large circular pieces of stainless steel underneath my stand, with brushes the ride along it meant for 220 volts. It works perfect, could show pics if you like. Will do many many more lights on top then a tree stand, no offense. But i have several thousand lights on mine and its no where near maxed out

    pics would be great. I need to run a couple of different things from it, and at least one will be blinky flashy. So I need at least 5 different power transfer points.

    I passed on a rotating Tree Stand at Garden Ridge. It was 90% off, but I couldn't think what I would do with it. Seeing some of the stuff, especially the carousel. I'm not very happy with myself. It was less than $10 and had 6 outlets for lights.
