I need some decent quality "Icicle" Christmas lights, preferably extendable.
Any suggestions of a supplier? I'm fed up with pouring over 100s of Google
hits turning up more and more crappy Premier or Festive domestic ones.

CPC always do tons of lights, as do TLC.

Both trade suppliers, so although it's still bound to be Chinese, it
probably won't kill you.

£29.99 per 100 LED 2 meter run plus £5.00 for the power lead. That's a wee
bit more than I was expecting to pay. I need about 20m

I just buy the cheapest LEDs from Amazon. Seems to work OK.

Marginally cheaper, rubber cable and resin sealed LEDs help add to cost.

CPC have had some dire Christmas lights in the past but they do a few ranges.

PVC cable and just clear heatshrink , might last a season, seen them described as such wholesale, seasonal LEDs, quite literally meaning intended to last for one Diwali/Christmas/Hanukkah, it`s a way of using up seriously out of spec LEDs.

Yeah, they do electrics, not websites. Drilling down the categories
usually works better.
