rope lights - close out prices

[scottmcl]

So are these good prices on rope lights from the CDI guys?

Looks like it to me, but having never bought rope lights, I'm curious if it's a good price or not.

Thanks for your help!!!

And besides the obvious 10 mm vs 13 mm, what's the difference between these two sets of lights? Is there a reason I would want 13 instead of 10? Brightness? Anything else?

Scott, rope lights are really nice lights but are tough to repair. I used them for years but quit when small sections began to fail. Beats me what the difference is between the two.

The 13mm is about 1/2" in diameter. Good for long straight runs, ie, along the eve of a house.

The 10mm is about 3/8" in diameter and is more flexible. Can be bent to a tighter radius. Some use these for wireframes.
