The newer lights seem to be sealed better. Mine have run wet with no problem. The ssc is another story. I need to seal where the wires exit the cap.

Let me try to explain something that everyone is not aware of I believe. The "newer" improved pixel nodes that look like they had some epoxy on the end to keep the water out. I saw a post some where that the person said it does not keep the water out of the led end.
If you take on of you newer nodes that are like this and tun a razor blade down the side of the silcone so you cut it you can now easily peal it away unlike the older ones. When you do you will fins it is just a thin shell and it is the whole pcb that is encased in epoxy not just the end. So there is not really anyway to get water to the pcb. the wires are also glued inside the epoxy so they get some strian relief for pulling loose like we had with the earlier ones. I wish all mine where the new style but they are not. This is the reason the difference in stories from one member to the next. It depends heavy on when they received the nodes.
I do not see dipping the new ones as i do not believe it will gain us anything. I just wish I would have been to do a show this year because I bought enough to double my megatree and outline the house with them this year. But you know sometimes family stuff has to come first.
With the new style nodes avaliable and the stuff we have coming out this year like the conductor and slaves it will be possible if you want to spend the money to do some amazing stuff. We will still have to seqence it all though and that to me is the hard part.
