What were all the LEDs out of? Or did you order them online?

Hey Miles, 100% DIY build.  Diodes off of ebay.  Wiring is cat 5 cable strands, had an arduino controller I coded from scratch.  Fun times!  Gotta say its nice to have an OR light, and just plug it in and use it now :)

My biggest challenge was poor solder joints giving out.  With no xener (sp?) diode, one failed connection meant the whole channel would go out.

I had 8 channels though!
