I would actually pick the left over the right lol i don’t like the shadows created with doing the right

[joeyjoey]

there is something people misunderstand and many people don’t understand this and today this is what I’m going to show you, and the reason why I want to say this is because I saw someone do it wrong and it’s important to have a design.

TLDR, you need a design.

At 3:45 I like the lighting of the pillar on the left (the one with just one spot light) better.

[JerseyPiney]

Honestly I’d pick the left pillar over the right one😂

In regards to Misunderstanding #3, some landscape lighting does have to be in conduit. In particular those that use 120VAC. Those that use 12VDC system do not.

How do you connect the sunvie 12 volt lights with connectors to the transformer

[jonduppong]

What tool is that being used to push the wires into the ground?

I installed my own landscape lighting by watching your channel. Thanks for sharing your tips. One question… since my transformer is 100 feet away from all the lightings, which V should I select? My transformer comes with 12, 13, 14, and 15.

my landscape lights are going off and on even in the daylight, what would the cause be?

[Mjr]

Can landscape light wiring go from 12/2 from the transformer to about 16/2 100ft or so down ?

What are the best solar flood lights for “in the ground” landscaping?

[magdalinejackson]

I have a question. I had some color changing pathway lights which stopped charging (solar). I don't want to buy new ones as the glass cups still look very good and don't want to throw it away either. How can I convert it into plug in bulbs as the front of the house don't get enough sun. I would really appreciate your input please. Thank you

I work for Ewing Supply. They have great products for this at a low price. Way better quality than home depot or Lowes. See where one is in your area.
