    Hey Rob,
    First off, I want to say it was nice meeting you at Brickworld, and thanks again for lighting my Ecto 1. The versatility of your existing e-Lite kits amaze me, so I'm excited to see that you are considering working on another product.

    For me, the most intriguing one is the eLite Pro kit. I think I'd get a lot of use out of something like that.

    I think the life Lights Jr is the best.

    Sadly college loans have kept me from ordering for a while (when the 3PO and R2 first came out), but that is definitely changing soon. These new products that may be offered at some point look fantastic. I have a SHIP in the works, and the megaboard looks like it would be perfect for lighting the whole thing up. Please keep the good work up!

    I like the idea of a kit capable of driving lots of LEDs.

    Would it be possible to drive EL wire from the eLite setup as this would give an area light effect rather than the point sources of the LEDs. Maybe they could be used in combination from a single brick, thus providing real neon style signage, window lighting for large aircraft (e.g boeing dreamliner), ships etc.

    I think the megaboard works beautifully, i have 2 in my merry-go-round, the 8+2 x 8 (80 lights) works great even though they all run the same sequence, you can see some images at www.quest4bricks.com and more images/videos at www.flickr.com in the brickfair 2008 photo galleries

    Hello Rob,
    First of all, your light kits are awesome, I have used 7 of the basic kits in my Hoth layout so far. I would vote for both the large and small kits, there are so many things that can be done with them. Maybe even a minifiqure kit would be cool. Keep up thegood work.
