Ralph D Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I have about 40 strobe lights in my mega tree, took a look this morning at them as part of my once over and noticed a little condensation in most of them. The strobes hang upside down. Question is....is it ok to drill a small hole in the clear lens as a drain hole to let the water drain out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dstevens Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 A lot of people make weep holes in the bottom of their strobes for the same reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surfing4Dough Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 The instructions for CLS strobes specifically say to have weep holes. I personally prefer the solder gun method for melting a weep hole since it is easier to control and avoid hitting the bulb/board inside the strobe.http://christmaslightshow.com/product.php?productid=54&cat=11&page=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
