Message about the new flat nodes from Ray.
Dear Mr.Mort,
The first 12mm round type is real IP68 rated, with silicon filled inside.
the second flat type is IP66, not IP68, because it is made by the injuection machine.
but i think it can be used in the rain, i have tested them in the water, they work well all the time.
by the way, we have put the conformal coating on the inner PCB.
thanks and best regards

The two new flat node strings.
The first node the wires go out the sides. More secure. But there IP66. Ray said they tested fine in water.
Injection molding. I would like these nodes IP68. But these may be modified with silicone I think to seal them up to IP 68.
The second flat nodes the wires go out the bottom. The wires are not as secure. But the nodes are IP 68 molded 'dot' of silicone. I don't like the fact the nodes can't be laid flat against the wall. Have to be careful with the wires.
