I'm looking for some basic info on LED rope lights. I've done a lot of household electrical work over the years, but I've never used LED rope lights and I'm not sure of some things. (Will be run under deck handrail.)
Since it will be used outside, I'm looking at using the "waterproof" variety. When I started looking at this, it seemed very simple - but the more I look, the more I realize that I don't know about this stuff.
I see both flat and round types available - are they both good? Or is one better than the other (round would seem to make bends better)?
Are connectors standardized, or do I need to make sure I stick with the same manufacturer?
Has anyone done this? If so, any tips?
Thanks!
