As it is designed, yes.

1-0 Habs. 6.55 seconds for the light to respond. Getting better....

That's not terrible. Hmmmmm. I wonder what their source is for that data.

Can anyone log/sniff their network to see where the traffic is going to/coming from during a game?

It was down to 4.46 seconds last night. Getting better. Still needs to shave a couple of seconds off.

Here's a video from a hockey forum I skate by...

Budweiser Red Light in Action - YouTube

The delay after the first goal could be handled by this one idea there: Just pause live tv for XX seconds, then resume watching.

The light went off perfectly last night. It was as if the goal judge was plugged right into my light....was really cool.

The thought of delaying it 'x' seconds would work if the delay was consistent in each game. I had up to a 7-second variation within 1 game, so that wouldn't work.

switched power outlet with lamp red light bulb plugged in along with and a horn.....long string to couch that can be pulled and bingo!

So Budweiser wants people to fork over $150 for A LIGHT, yet they will only guarantee support through the playoffs THIS SEASON?!?!? C'mon, they've gotta do more than that!!!

Here's hoping the delay would be more along the lines of the 1.1 seconds... I have a regular run of the mill wi-fi/router... Cisco Linksys E1000... Would I need to beef up the router to make it run effectively??? (Cable internet as the source, and an iPhone for the app)

Oh and Jrees, I guess you were watching that 6-0 thrashing at the hands of the LEAFS, eh? Your habs are doing well, and hey, at least you're not a Sens fan!!! I'd rather see Montreal win than Ottawa ANY day...

I used to like jrees.

Now with realignment, he's the enemy.

So are you.
