    Based on some research and this thread I'm leaning towards gemstone. Was everyone $21/foot or has anyone negotiated on the price? We're looking around $7,000 + for front and back on our place and wondering if they have cheaper/slower times etc.

    We got a bit below 20 based on a family member working for a company that promotes them, and another family member who purchased.

    Thanks, was that Gemstone or Trimlight?

    Everyone still happy with their lights?

    I did a lot of research on this and programming them during Christmas break. My house will more than likely be torn down in 5 years or less, not putting a cent into this current place.

    Still quite happy with Gemstone. Having seen the install at my son's place, compared to the photos on Trimlight's website (I think I posted the 2 earlier in the thread) the difference was enough to sway our decision. Have not compared the 2 on, at night from a distance, maybe there's less of a difference then.

    So just got a quote on Gemstone. Are you guys still happy with it? Any issues?

    Haven't gotten a quote from competitors such as Trimlight or Watts yet. That being said anyone have any feedback on the competitions?

    Looking at watts, about 15-20% cheaper than gemstone, seem to be really similar, but also would love any feedback

    I was bored over the pandemic and decided to try the DIY route, total cost was about 600 and after a year they are still working perfectly.





    And this is what they look like in the day time

    Sick. I should do this as I'm far too cheap to pay for gemlights, but I want something I can install once and forget about.

    I was in the same boat and with WLED pre done effects there is over 100 different combinations for any event you can think of.

    just make sure you put the power supply it on a switched outlet or somewhere it can be easily reached, they do need to be power cycled occasionally.

    Has anyone got 2021 quotes or install from Gemstone or Trimlight? Just wondering if $21 is still the going rate or if prices have come down a bit? Looking at @drtoohotty1 's PermaTrack kit I'd be about $1100 CND plus bullshit border fees. Trying to weigh my options.

    Gemstone is still around $21 and they seem to be booked solid so don't see a drop anytime soon. Watt's is a new competitor that seems really similar to gemstone and they were offering $15-16/foot, not sure if that promo is still on.
