[QUOTE="David_AVD, post: 83696, member: 94"] I would be wary of buying LED fairy lights (strings and nets) from Chinese eBay and AliExpress sellers. They are almost always mains voltage (240V) and are dodgy as hell. There are only a couple of suppliers of low voltage strings and nets on eBay. Look for ones that say they come with a power adapter. It can be hard to tell and asking the seller will often result in incorrect answers. Buying from an Australian eBay seller can give you a better chance. Here's one ([url=http://www.ebay.com.au/usr/mr*accessory]link[/url]) that seems to have some SAA approved ones. I don't recall the names of the Chinese suppliers of low voltage strings. From memory there are minimum order quantities involved. The other thing to keep in mind is that most LED strings these days are the 2-wire type (as apposed to the older 3-wire type). The 2-wire type can only be used on a special type of DC controller ([url=http://www.hansonelectronics.com.au/product/dmx2-18/]example[/url]), not the common switched negative DC controllers.

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
