Testing the LifeLites custom LED kits

[Sariel]

I've been curious about these bad boys for a while, and finally got around to buying and testing a few kits. Now, considering that LEGO has done literally nothing in the lighting area since 2008, I intend to use these in my future creations (and if you're going "Heretic! Persecute him!", at least do that in Monty Python voice ;) ).

Lifelites are neat. Good product, good people. They used to have a PF brick, but discontinued it.

i have the two elite sets, i have a hard time incorporating them, also a set for mocs. they are a great product. nice little video.

I think I like Brickstuff sets more - they have thinner cables. I would love to see a direct comparison.

Thank you very much for this review and first of all proposing this alternative lighting to the crowd.

i have been looking at the brickstuff as well, i think i am going to try them next, i do want the thinner cable..

[Sariel]

It's just my impression, but the Brickstuff sets seem larger and much, much more expensive.

Thanks for the test... I'm also consider buying some of these... Your video gave me a lot of informations.

Hello,

I have the LifeLites Advanced 2 kit, the RGB Modulite kit, 3 expander boards, 3-4 of the flickering flames, and some assorted extension cables and extra lights.

I'm not sure if you covered the expander boards, in your video. But I have found them extraordinarily useful for expanding a pattern to incorporate more lights, or for isolating lights from the pattern using the auxiliary power output on the advanced 2 mcu. Even though you have to purchase extension cables for the boards to work.

Overall I have found the LifeLites kits to be a very useful investment. And you have created a nice review for them Sariel.

I have bought several lifelites. I really enjoy them, and they offer great customer service. One of my MOC died... and even after it fell from about six feet up the cables did not rip or tear and they are still functional. Even after this.....
