If you want to avoid plugging the Aether II into an outlet, the simple answer is to NOT use that type of plug.  Using an 120V AC outlet plug on a low voltage device is really just asking for trouble.

i read somewhere here in the forum about using some watertight trailer light connectors instead of the spt plug. i am thinking i will have to go that route...as soon as i figure out what it look like.

ray sells the 3 pin connectors for smart strings....  he also sells 2,4, and 5 pin connectors, so it's really easy to make a compatible system of connectors to save yourself.

You can buy connectors at Radio Shack.  Remembr that these are only 12V and waterproof is not much of an issue.  Most extension cords are not waterproof and many of us have tem all over the lawn and they work just fine and they ARE at 120V.  Any 2pin molex connectors should work just fine.

If you want something heavy duty in a 3r enclosure you can get this one for under $100 (plus shipping)
