As you can see the lid has an O-ring making the box water
tight.

My lights need 12 volts so I bought a small transformer
to run all my lights with. It also came with a quick disconnect plug
which will make hooking thing up that much easier.
|
|
 |
I'm using speaker wire that will run from cane to another. And each
connection will be soldered and have shrink tubing. I believe this will
necessary to keep all the connections dry for a potential wet environment.

 |
Here is one of the connections all finished.

I had a few feet of LED's leftover from a previous project but I needed more so I bought the same brand, color
and brightness. Over the years the box had changed but everything inside
it is the same.
|
|
 |
I'm making some brackets that will attach the transformer to the box,
and elevate it as well.
|
|
 |
The box has provisions for screws in various places on the bottom which
made attaching the brackets easy.
|
|
 |
I had some plastic plugs sitting around and used them at the ends of
each cane.
|
|
 |
I'm using some clear caulking to keep water out of the grommet area.
|
|
 |
All of the connections are on the inside of the canes so they should
stay dry.
It doesn't have to look nice, it just has to work.
