Those look about the right size for our boards and they have 187 left for only 12.50 each? Thats a steal. Thats also a great deal on the zip cord.

They are slightly used with some holes that might need to be sealed depending on the application. Also they are plenty big, about twice the size of the CTB16PC enclosure.

bisquit476 Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Hi Jim,Your not worried about heat with that many boards and a sealed cover? or are you leaving the cover off? Very nice setup though,Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only sell them in 100 ct lots, for $56. They where $45 last year but the price I has gone up since than. There is two places I go to.One is:http://www.ormaninc.com/catalog/?ProductID=33LPGBut you have to have an account and be a retailer, or know someone who will buy them for you , If so, they are only $0.10 each!http://www.thechristmaslightpros.com/store/index-page-category-catid-180-clp-spt-1_plug_ends.htmBut they only sell male for $0.56Sometimes:http://www.ledlightsite.com/store/p/1221-Accessories-Electrical-Plug-male-green-slide-on-SPT-1.aspxBut here they are $0.70.

Very nice setup though,LOL...I figured someone would bring up the heat issue!! I am running all LED's and will have MAX, three strings per channel. I think it averages out to less than 1.5 strings per channel for all my enclosures, and I VERY seldom have all my lights on at the same time...maybe two or three times during a show and that would be for a few seconds at the end of a song.Yes, was planning on having the cover on since they will be out in the weather, but I plan on watching the heat issue very closely.

bwaldrep Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I posted about it here http://lightorama.mywowbb.com/view_topic.php?id=22172&forum_id=81&jump_to=201825Additionally, the order was short, it had 95 main pieces, and 111 of the sliding ends (Some one had trouble counting). It took 2-3 weeks for them to respond to me about that issue, they did send out 5 more ends to make up for it, but it was a lot of work to deal with them (him).Also, the email addresses listed on their contact page, are invalid, and get bounced back, at least they did a month ago.
