canadianchristmas Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Hi, sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong place. I'm looking for a nice waterproof (ip68) 2811 strip, I usually get weather in december up to -30 so It needs to be tough. If anyone can help that would be great! Thanks.

jerrymac Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Try Holiday Coro (www.holidaycoro.com) or Seasonal Entertainment (www.seasonalentertainmentllc.com). Ray Woo has lots of them (china) but quality control is some times hit and miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grump010 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I've purchased from Seasonal a few times and Greg does ship to Canada. I have wall washers and C9 RGB strings and very happy with both. CheersDaryl B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max-Paul Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Put your strips inside of PEX tubing. Here in the states this is a replacement for copper tubing carrying water in houses. I buy the straight 10' tubes. The bulk coils are to hard to work with and wont straighten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indi Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Mr. Max: Where do you find 10' pex. The only thing in pex around here that I can find is red and blue. The 10' section I did find, looked like only had cut them from a coil and I could get it in red or blue. I've looked at Menards and Lowes. Don't have a Home Depot in town. I may have to go to a plumbing supply house and see if they carry it.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) Here in Florida Home Depot has them (brand is Sharkbyte). They have 10' straight tubes and coils. -Paul Edited April 3, 2014 by Paul R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougd Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Yeah, I have tried everything to straighten the coils. It just wont straighten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worksopian Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I assume it is the white pex tube that is being used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max-Paul Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) Here in Florida Home Depot has them (brand is Sharkbyte). They have 10' straight tubes and coils. -Paul+1 Thats where I got mine too. Plumbing supply house might be able to help. HD has it in white, blue and red and different sizes (dia.) I think I am using 3/4" Right, white it is. Blue and Red just dont do a good job showing the different colors. Edited April 4, 2014 by Max-Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsh28 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I'd just go with the strips from Ray. As long as you protect them (i'm using PEX tubing) they'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
