    LED lights on Power Poles

    I'm looking to mount LED strip lights inside the PP so that the light shines through the holes and when deployed. Do I need to get the IP68 rated lights, or would IP67 be fine?

    I have them inside my PPs. Be sure to leave enough slack for deployment. The wires are so small they will break.

    https://www.russellmarineproducts.co.../rmp-ppb-b.htm

    I took a chance and ordered one of these. They are back ordered for a couple of weeks. In addition all of the reviews aren’t favorable. Some have not had any trouble and love the light. However, several people said theirs started flickering after about a year. Russell Marine has been standing behind their product and sending out replacements if it goes bad. IDK I guess I’ll find out.

    Are those two strips per power pole or one strip for each power pole? Sorry, just confused as the kit comes with 2 strips.

    They were designed for one strip per pole, but of course you could put two on one pole as well if you wish.
