Product Features

The absolute key to a well designed and beautiful RGB Pixel MegaTree is ensuring that your pixels are straight and evenly spaced - even just a few mis-aligned or un-evenly spaced pixels can ruin the look of a pixel MegaTree. While strip / ribbon pixels have this as part of their inherent design, nodes have always had a problem getting perfect spacing and alignment. Previous solutions involved complicated and extremely slow taping or zip tying and often then didn't produce perfect results. All these problems with mounting pixel nodes on your MegaTree are now solved and at a price below any other method on the market today with PixNode Strips™.
  • Outdoor Rated - Manufactured from durable, outdoor rated and UV resistant plastic (black material only) on our in-house, computer controlled machines.
  • Durable & Strong - Our strips are 15% thicker and stronger than all other pixel node strip on the market today - hands down the strongest strip on the market today.
  • Black - We offer black which is great for non-reflective lighting and helps to hide light scatter from the rear of pixels.
    • NOTE: We no longer sell clear. See our Extreme Strip White as the closest match.
  • Part of the Integrated QuickTree System - The QuickTree system allows you to use PixNode Strips to build 4 to 60 ft tall strip trees and more - all perfectly designed to work together.
  • No Screws, Bolts, Washers or Tools Required - HolidayCoro invented the original, no-hardware strip version using two simple 4" zip ties - no need to worry about additional bolts to splice together longer lengths.
  • Trimmable to 1" Sections - Each strip can be cut to any length using standard scissors, in increments as small as 1". To create longer lengths, use two, 4" zip ties to create super strong splices (see video on this page for complete details) - without the need to manually punch holes or modify the strip in any way.
  • Designed for High Tension Forces - Designed for 55 pounds of tension and 70 pounds on splice joints using just two nylon zip ties
  • Fast Installation - Installation takes only about 2-4 seconds per node making it the absolutely fastest method on the market today
  • Recommended Nodes and Spacing:
    • Center to Center Pixel Spacing

  • No electrical tape - As many have learned, using the "banding and taping" method, results in electrical tape that comes loose in the cold and is extremely time consuming to install and makes repairs a nightmare.
  • Easy "On-Tree" Repairs - On-tree repairs of bad nodes can often be performed without requiring any major disassembly of surrounding nodes.
  • Extensive Termination Options - Strip ends can be attached to a variety of termination points at the top and bottom of your tree. Materials that can be used for termination points include:
    • PVC pipe
    • Eye hooks (round, hook, large or small)
    • Screws
    • Bolts
    • Nails
    • Zip ties
    • See our product video for examples
    • We also offer for selected installations, the PixNode Strain Relief clip.
  • Easy Off-Season Storage - Just take down your PixNode Strip with the nodes installed, coil up and store away in bins or hang from your garage or basement joists. The material is safe to store in temperatures up to 375f.
  • We recommend purchasing 5% more than actual necessary length to allow for splicing and end connections/terminations

5 of 5 Easier than doing nothing. July 14, 2021
Reviewer: allen kitchen from Webster, TX United States  
Building a matrix with these is simple.  Build the frame, put pixels in these strips with an extra inch on both ends, and put the strips into the frame.

5 of 5 Easy to use with a variety of pixels June 13, 2021
Reviewer: Richard N from Magnolia, TX United States  
The 1 inch spacing works well for me as I can space pixels as needed. Very sturdy and will last for years.  They can easily be cut to length or spliced together for longer lengths.
