Title: Need suggestions for good quality LED Rope lights
Post by: Jeff & Sandy on August 13, 2016, 05:24:36 pm
I tried a set from Amazon and they lasted two trips. I'm looking for 30 - 50 feet and do not mind spending the money for quality. These are for outside, not attached to the coach so they have to be weatherproof.

Any suggestions appreciated.  :D

Jeff, I bought five 25' long sets about four years ago from our local Menards (like Home Depot). Unfortunately they are not marked. They are 12 red LED lights, 12 white LED lights, & 12 blue LED lights. One set has a dead spot in it due to some dumbass (no names please) who thought backing over the rope light with his Geo Tracker wouldn't hurt the lights. WRONG!!!
We hook all five sets together and then lay them on the ground around our site--sometimes. Other times we don't even put them out.
Wish I could help you more, but why don't you check with Home Depot, etc?

LED strips such as these are among the few I've found  indicating use with varible voltage

I got mine from superbrightled.com 4 years ago and they are still working. I'm sure they will have the waterproof type.
