[AT] LEDs

[Dave Maynard]

Guys, check these out at Amazon, it's the "Barina" ones. Price is great,
and I have purchased these a bunch of times for myself and friends and even
my company. They are great, they come with 110v cord for each, or they can
be plugged together with supplied cords, or wired in directly. They are
complete and extremely lightweight swear you could even hang them with a
good double face tape...lol
