At least 5000 watts... right?

Nelo Esteves ~ As Seen Through Hazel Eyes says:

thanks all.

lakewentworth, not sure how many watts, but the family does use several generators to power up this impressive light show. the family says this was their last year, but i hope they reconsider. it's become a tradition of love for them and pure joy for the children and the children at heart.

Thanks elvy. All you need is several million lights, a few generators and a dream. And you too can have a great display this December :)

It all runs on generators. So their gas ill must be through the roof. But so worth it because of all the joy they bring!
