Also how much would YOU charge to make a set of these??Total costs for me:* 5 x DIY Ranbow Spotlights = $60 + shipping* 1 x Box of C9 shaped Clear Lighted lawn stakes = $50 + shipping* 30 feet of 22/4 wire = I bought a roll of 500 feet for $58 + shipping--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Total Parts Cost: $160 + shippingTime expenditure* Soldering 5 Rainbow spotlights = 1 hour* Opening up and removing all LED's and wire from lawn stakes = 20 minutes* Wiring together and testing all rainbow spotlights = 45 minutes* Installing all spotlights in the lawn stakes and completing = 45 minutes---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Total Time Cost: 2 hours and 50 minutesI haven't really given much thought to making these for people especially since I still have three more to make for myself. If I did, you could see that the cost for 30 feet of wire would be like $5 so parts costs would be around $115 plus shipping and 3 hours of my time to assemble and another 20 minutes or so to package and ship.
