Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in String Lights
The Dri Box is a simple ABS plastic box with a soft rubber "squishy" (like a stress-ball) type seal for the mains cables going in and out. The lid also has some rubber lining and attaches to the main box with two snap-on side latches. The box lid also features large eaves to help divert the flow of rain water away from the seals of the box under it, though the deep dish-style of the top of the lid is prone to catching water, so you have to shake it off before you open it. Note that if the box were to somehow end up upside down, I believe that the seals would still keep the water securely out. Note that this box is definitely not suitable for submersion, but will easily handle a soggy rain storm. The latches on the box definitely make the case safe enough for curious kids and animals to play with the box but not inadvertently open it up, even if it was kicked over. For adults, opening the box is easy with minimal effort as the latches flex as they slide on and off with your thumbs. The latches themselves provide a solid hold on the lid. Care must be taken when examining or removing the box after a period of time outdoors - the area under the eaves of the lid will be an ideal dry and hidden place for spiders and other insects to create their home, but they definitely won't be able to get inside the box. Inside the box, there is ample space for a four-port Aussie-spec mains power board plus four general-sized power transformers. Note that due to the box being pretty well sealed, I would avoid leaving this box in the sun or operating it during hot weather - I would ensure it is kept in the shade because this box has zero ability to breathe without compromising its water-proofing. With respect to using it for Christmas Lights, I would recommend making sure that the lights you use are of the "low voltage" variety where the power supply will barely get warm, let alone hot. The squishy rubber seal easily resumes its relaxed position after cable removal, even after a month of running mains cables in it, ensuring a good seal every time you need to use it. I now have three of these boxes and I highly recommend them to anyone needing to hook up temporary mains power outside of the house on the lawn or in the garden, particularly for Christmas lights. Even though it's UV-resistant plastic, I would probably hesitate a bit in installing them permanently outdoors unless you could guarantee additional shelter from direct weather and sunlight.Read full review
