Thanks Mr.   The cheapest way would be USPS Parcel Post, but I don't know if the PO even accepts Int'l PP shipments anymore.  (It is not an option online at usps.com)  And my experience in the past has been that PP shipments always get opened by customs and duty charged.  FIrst Class is the way to go.  Now, however, FC has a 4-lb package weight limit, and those four pounds would cost >$35.   :o

Whatever you do, don't order the "injection molding typeIP66" such as here:

Thanks Pat.  The pre-sale price on those in-stock C6's expires Thursday.  I guess I'll just have to keep looking on AliExpress, and maybe luck out with a free shipping offer!

I know it's a longshot, but if you or anyone you know is planning a trip to Thailand... I am trying to find a way to get ten strings of  C6-70's here as cheaply as possible.  I can't believe how much USPS Int'l rates have increased since last year.  Most airlines allow one free bag up to 50 lbs...

For the life of me I cannot find a Chinese supplier of these in BLUE!  Go figure.  You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

my idea for the icicles is to have the control chips in the top of the tube, with wires running down to the actual leds in the tubes.

using the 1" pvc to hold the chips and resistors, then a reducer to a clear plastic tube to hold the leds.

some people do the up/down method, but then are limited to how long they can run their icicles.

If I get you Chris, by "how long" you're saying that the "limit" is the number of LED's that the chip can handle?  In the case of your arches the limit was nine 5050's per chip, right?

I have an idea about icicles/meteors but little practical know-how.  I don't wanna hijack yours so I'll start a new thread.

I was thinking too much about how to make at least semi-smart icicles and getting nowhere except tangled up in lots of wire and splices.  Then I saw this You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login and the light turned on.

^ you mean like the same number of LED's per drop?  If so, then this would be somewhat like a curtain, but short?  say 12 to 18 inches?  I wish my icicles had even a drop of intelligence.

how many lights is a good count for icicle lights? ....
When you say icicle lights, I think of my 3 meter long strings of 100-ct M5's on white wire with drops of 5,4,3 and 2 LED's spaced 100mm apart.  But I guess that's not what you're thinking Chris?

...Meteor tubes 56 gives you a 4 foot tube at least when I made my FAST tubes that how long my 56 LED tubes where. YMMV
Jeff, I searched for FAST tubes with no results.  Do you have more details?

...with great difficulty!  I've never really been successful without causing some damage.  A very small straight screwdriver helps.  It's not easy to move the locking tab over and pull the bottom at the same time.  What is needed is a special tool that would move both locking tabs at the same time.

Yes Rick, Sketchup!  I love that program.  I don't have Visio.
