Deck Lighting – Exterior Low Voltage Outdoor Yard Lights.

If you’re building a new deck or looking at upgrading your existing wood deck you should look at exterior low voltage outdoor yard lights from Rockler.com. Rockler provides a great rectangular deck light that can add an accent on plantings, illuminate the garden path or light up decks for evening entertaining. The rectangular mini louvered light is a small decorative light for deck posts and deck railing. The fixtures are cast aluminum with a textured architectural bronze finish. All components are UL listed.

You can purchase the rectangular deck lights separately or you can buy a complete kit. The low voltage outdoor lighting kit comes with 4 lights, an 88 watt transformer, 50’ of wire and wire nuts. The 88 watt transformer will supply enough power for up to 12 low voltage lights. If you want to power more lights you will need to purchase a bigger transformer or run multiple transformers.

There are five different transformers available:

- 60 Watt 12 Volt Photocell Transformer

- 88 Watt 12 Volt Photocell Transformer

- 88 Watt 12 Volt Multiple Setting Transformer

- 200 watts 12 Volt Multiple Setting Transformer

- 300 Watt 12 Volt Multiple Setting Transformer

The 12 Volt digital transformer with built-in photocell lets you automatically turn the outdoor lights on at dusk and off at dawn. Additional settings allow lights to automatically turn on and then off in 4, 6 or 8 hours.

The 12 volt multiple setting transformer has a multiple on/off timer and the outdoor lights can be set to go on or off up to two times each day.

Low voltage outdoor lighting wire comes in 50 foot lengths. Make sure you measure how much wire you need before placing your order.
