Oof I thought it was a sale thread!

Good luck man, is it legal to join your wanted advert? I can send you a Steam game key as a thank you

*Edit: I will check with work suppliers if they can do consumer sales. I'm certain they can get you anything, but not sure what the cost will be

Are you looking for colours other than white, black, blue, red, green and yellow?

I've been searching for other colours as well.

Only other place that i see these kits with some variation in color is on Banggood.

If you down know of the site, its a Chinese mart sourcing website. Reliable though and not shitty like Wish.com

Pricing is good. quality is also good on the stuff i have ordered before, shipping on standard is around 2 weeks and extra 3 to 5 days for delivery to your door. and they do ship during this time. friend of mine ordered a roll of RGB lights 2 weeks ago and got the package on Tuesday.
One thing to note that catches you off guard is the shipping company that delivers to your door, They are called Buffalo Logistics and they will contact you regarding the customs fee (which is almost nothing. on some of my orders of 2k electronics the customs is around R150)

Thanks for the assistance guys. I'm actually looking for lengths of about 5m continuous and i see most places sell short pieces.
I've just found a company that can supply in various lengths - www.mantech.co.za. I just called them and they can cut to any length.
Will go visit them next week and update if it works out.

Look into using braided cable sleeving instead maybe - it bends a lot better than heatshrink - it comes in brighter colours and it does not need to be heated/shrunk

I'm not sure of local suppliers - but the FPV Drone Racing community use it a lot

Me too recommending Communica in Midrand... they also do online orders ... I bought a transparent box full of coloured heat-shrink tubes from them a couple of years ago for R80 or something, and I think it'll become a heirloom, not because I don't use it, it's just that I don't use all that much in a year. It's really important to get various sizes since the tubes don't shrink all that much, and you need to get one that fits
