Cheap Moonlight Alternative

Looking for a cheap moonlight alternative? Check this out

I have used this rope light for over a year. It is close to the proper blue (if not exact), is dimmable and uses very little electricity. I like the look a lot as at 100% it is not too dim, not too bright. What I have done is wrap it around the inside of my canopy and I have it plugged into my AquaController. The moonlight come on at moonrise, off at moonset and dim to the percentage of the moon i.e. when the moon is in first quarter the moonlight would only be 50% lit.

Today the moonlights should be close to 100% as tomorrow is a full moon.

Very cool. I have been looking for some alternative to moon lights also. Did you get yours at Amazon, or somewhere local? Did you use the white or the blue.
I would like to hear more about this controller too.

Thanks

I got mine at Target, over Christmas. I use the blue lights.

Can you get any picks of the lights?
I am gonna run buy a target or Walmart tomorrow and see if I can pick some up.

Thanks for the heads up.

The lights are so dim that the pics would not turn out well.
