Lot of work and detail in this.I have these in smart lighting that are dimmable from a phone app got from lamp and light.They give off great light aswell 👍
I've used Wagos this year as I had an ants nest in one of the chambers which caused excess moisture (prior to that I'd just used loads of electrical tape). The Wagos are larger, but they do just about fit fortunately. Also used a sealant where the lamp meets the patio.
Couple of reasons.... 1) I had excess NYY-High-tuff cable, so cost wasnt an issue and it's generally inexpensive. 2) The apeture for service is small (even with 1 cable), so daisy-chain would mean 2 connections per light Sure there were better ways to deploy, but this method worked a charm. Thanks for the question certainly SealaxLife
www.aewelectrical.com/products.html This is where I got them from. They're a trade shop, so might not sell direct to consumer. The lights are made by Kensington, so maybe look at who stocks them. Alternatively, Screwfix or similar UK trade outfit should supply.
Are you asking me or telling me? I guess you COULD use SWA, I think with this tecnique it'd be very difficult to terminate with full SWA on the flex and such a small apeture to work with. On this setup, I had SWA into my box which was adjacent to the patio, and then I used NYY High-Tuff which is strong, but much easier to work with. Hope that helps.
Good question. 5 of the lights got flooded with water during last years heavy rain. I wouldnt expect them to have flooded, but the actual casing leaked water into the unit. I took them to the supplier and they replaced FOC, but I am concerned come this year if the replacements do the same. So far, they've been good - so it might have a faulty batch. Have a look around, and get a gurantee from your vendor, maybe a trade counter.
Great video, couple of things ill probably do differently but I love the trick with the waste pipe and will definitely be nicking that!

i agree individual feeds plus easier to fault find in future
Please tell me the size
The amount of wires is unnecessary. You can parrell from light bulb to another bulb.
Where. Can I find these lights?

I’m looking at buying 8 of these… How are these lights still performing…? Any issues with them or need to replace any of them…?
