First of all, you have to select the type of coverage, and in many cases, you can use a combination of many things. To get constant bright light, you can select a lighting low voltage landscape. Although these bright lights, and they do not come with a monthly cost of electric bills will be the impact of this style of lighting. Furthermore, the installation of electric lighting of the landscape is more complex, requires many components, and offers less flexibility comparable outside our solar garden lights. Low voltage systems are also dependent on external source of electricity.
In many cases, the sunlight as lighting and other solar path defined by the fact that the proportion of easily knocked down. Solar road lamp and then mounted on top of charges for bail or turn and twist mechanism. Other outdoor sunlight can be installed directly on the surface of land along the levy on the steps and ladders and other solid structures such as fences or poles. As a rule, all mounting hardware for these applications include various lamps.
Low-voltage systems reduce an electrical current from 120 volts to 12 volts using a transformer. Obviously, this system requires an external electrical access and need to dig a trench about 3 or 4 inches deep to bury the power cord is connected to lights and cables of the transformer. The cost of 12-volt system should include not only light, but the transformers and cables. In addition to installing this system for longer periods, the owner should also consider other issues as the potential voltage drop on the set of lights further away from the transmitter. There is less flexibility with electrical systems, as a rule, the lights should be installed in line, allowing the connection of power cord between the lights.
Of course, low voltage systems do not emit light more consistent throughout the night, while outdoor lighting fixtures reduce the intensity of the landscape during the morning and brighter than the sun rises. However, the owner must consider all options before installing the lighting system. Sunlight provides a soft glow, but they are still lighting option very suitable for outdoor use.
