Where are you guys buying your wire for RGB Pixels?

Need to buy some wire for 18awg  12V 2811 pixels. Not for Power injection but for the runs from the box to the lights. I'm going to get the 3 conductor water proof connectors as well. Where is the best place to get the connectors and wire?

 

Thanks

You might try http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=102&cp_id=10239&cs_id=1023904&p_id=4043&seq=1&format=2

 

It's 4 core but I use it with 4 core connectors for all my extension uses. I have 4 core waterproof connectors( LINK ) on all my RGB strings but just leave one lead open.  Been using it for last 4 yrs with no issues.  I one area I used acrylic craft paint to blend the cables into the ground cover.  Using gloves I just rubbed the paint into the cables.  Works great.

 

Hopes this helps.

The raw wire shown above works.... and I've used that for my panel for the wiring within the wall.

 

If you want an easy plug-and-play option:

 

You can also get "extensions" with the water proof connectors as well:

 

I put a 20cm female pigtail on the controller, and a male on the lights and get an extension in whatever length (5 foot / 10 foot / 25 foot )to meet your needs
