YANQ: yet another noob question :-)
I've run normal lights with normal extension cords in the past without problems. We don't get much severe weather here, but drizzle is common. I've been surprised that nothing shorts during rain since I don't think the normal extension cords are anywhere near weatherproof.
I've heard people mention RJ45/Cat5 connectors shorting, so sounds like some weatherproofing is a good idea there, but what about the rest? I've heard of people using the spray corrosion proofing, any other ideas?
I take it since I've not had problems with extension cords in the past with normal lights, having them hooked up to controllers doesn't change anything except now they're going on and off a lot :-)
To weatherproof or not to weatherproof?
