My experience with Crestron is its rather "sensitive/ delicate". Every time we have an electrical storm in the area of our conference center, the system gets quiorky, and needs rebooted. That takes 3-5mins. And make sure you have a good knowledge of the coding of the software for your location...

Just a "singin' to the choir" question here... if your demographic is "mostly NYC transplants/retirees. They are a picky crowd!"How do they expect the arts to survive & not become even more of a class/ economic divide? Without real philanthropic support? How many shows are finding it...

My 2 cents: We were recently facing similar dilemma for a human-powered parade wagon, with spinning Globe , LED lites, and bubble machine...the plan was inverters/ 12V/ etc. During one of our tests, at home, the power went out in neighborhood & our "battery-backup" started chirping periodically...
