We don't want to have various socket boxes dangling from the trees to service multiple strands.

Anyone here have experience with modifying these so i can have one long strand?

thanks

The strings I'm using are 10M (33 feet) and allow up to 10 strings to be connected from a single controller. ~$25 per string.
