what connectors do I need for the weatherproof strips, I ordered the suggested ones but they do not work on these strips due to silicon ?

connectors are OK. you need to cut (peel) the silicon at the connecting point. This will not be waterproof.

You can scrape the silicone off, solder the connecting wires onto the contact points, and then re-apply a conformal coating such as MG Chemical 422.

I used standard crimp connectors to wire mine up to a 12v marine battery underneath my golf cart. I used the red ones because their the smallest. Because the wire is so small, I stripped enough so I could double the wire over. Then I daubed liquid electrical tape over it. Hope this helps.

Yes, standard width of *most* strips is 3/8" but for installation purposes if you are using a dado, it should be made 1/2" to accommodate any strip connectors, as they run just shy of a 1/2" in width.

You can use these: http://www.amazon.com/20pcs-Connectors-Strip-Lights-Insert/dp/B008LR35VK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1388815501&sr;=8-1&keywords;=led+pins+connectors but there may be a limit as to how many feet you can connect. From what I have researched it should work. I thought I read somewhere there was some limit as to the length. Only $1.99 for 10 of them.

My charger is weatherproof. The j connector is waterproof. Sometimes I use my garage space for projects and the car stays outside. I just route the cord under the garage door.

You need some male/male 4-pin connectors: http://www.amazon.com/20pcs-Connectors-Strip-Lights-Insert/dp/B008LR35VK

You will need the interconnect cables - the LED strips are female and the interconnect cables are male.

There are solder points every 2 inches. You can cut through the strip with scissors and peel back the waterproof material to utilize them. If you are soldering, I would recommend re-sealing it with hot glue when you are done to avoid any shorts because the solder points are pretty close together. Otherwise just buy the connectors for the strip.

I didn't use the connectors. I work with wire almost every single day, and didn't see the need for them. I ran 14 awg, stripped the wire and twisted it with my fingers and put them in. Had no issues.

Sorry I can't tell you as I haven't installed the weatherproof strips yet. I can tell you I have been very happy with the SMD5050 high bright and warm white strips. Good brightness and color.

Hi, These are very poor quality LED strip, I just bought there to replaced it. "DC 12V 5M 16.4 ft 300 LED Non Waterproof 5050 SMD Flexible LED Light Lamp Strip 60led/meter (5050, Day White)" !! These are much brighter and the color are daylight where the one you asked are too warm! Also their uniformity are much better, have 3M double sided tape so you can stick it to your tank!!!!

they will work with the panels. I used these connectors to hook up two positive cables into one line and another to hook up two negative cables from two panels into another line .I had used 4 panels on my roof two 100 watt and two 40 watt and used these connectors to have one line for positive and one line for negative coming off the roof into the house. hope this helps you George s

They should be perfectly fine for a very long time. Ive the intact strips running on a 11-14.3 volt system and they work just fine in that range. Ive only had issues with one strip because of a crack in the rubber shell letting water into it

The weather connectors are good but only about 6' long. I wanted to mount it to a mast at my cabin so I orded the 25' extension cable. You will want tape over them as they don't have an o-rings.

I used the connectors and the driver below and used wire nuts to join the driver to the connectors. Butt splices would work too.

I think that if what you have isn't listed in the description as working with this adapter, you should search for an adapter that works specifically for the weather radio you have. I bought this one for my Inno, only because Inno was listed in the description.

I'm not much of an expert to answer. The strips my wife uses in the next Ez meter are 7308. I think that is all that will work. Sorry I don't have more info.

I wouldn't trust them to be weather resistant, the item isn't marketed as such and what you see in the picture is what you get, the connections would be at risk of damage if they were to get wet.
