Hey, that's cool that SimFlame now offers a low voltage flicker circuit. I was familiar with their stuff, but hadn't looked into them for over a year. Looks like they've added a few products to their line recently. Thanks for pointing that out, if I can find lower wattage low voltage bulbs or figure out some kind of dimmer controller, then I might use that SimFlame flicker circuit.

Also, I'm working on a rain window effect box for the huge window in my bar area. TikiHula is working on one in his Kapili Room as well. We are both investigating using programmable lighting controls (like from a DJ rig) that can control all of the various lighting scenarios at once, and you interface it with a laptop to program everything. Something like that might be an option for all of the lighting in the bar area, if you have complicated mood lighting scenarios. For most home bar applications it might be overkill, though. :)
