No idea why I was pointed to this ancient thread, but since I'm here...
Personally I wouldn't be offended because the OP was politely phrased as wanting a simple second opinion on a project that is personally important. If I knew my client were as savvy as to be lurking on the forums like this, I'd probably suggest he come here or one of the others specifically to confirm my recommendation or find other suggestions that I'm unaware of. There were two specific contrary recommendations for robust accessories to be installed, and I would have been happy to go with one of the two IP68 suggestions made if client insisted having read this most informative chat, assuming he had an appropriate space for me to install a driver box. (In this example I wouldn't go for the Collingwood as the OP sounded like he would have baulked at their price, but I generally trust TLC.)
