    I watched this video and looked at the cost of the core drills, both to purchase and to rent, and decided I would call around to get a few quotes from professionals for my install. Through sheer luck and coincidence, I ended up on the phone with Eric himself. I put two and two together when he started describing the process and it matched what I saw in this video!

      Even if it’s his product the result came out good. So he has convinced me.

    Great video! The only thing I'm wondering with the tile in the first part of the video is how you get the wire from the bottom of the hole connected to where it needs to go? Do you have to insert the light into the ground and run the cable back upward and out of the hole to connect to your main wire through a grout line? And in doing so, you would need to cut a line from the hole up to a grout line correct? Thanks so much for the video! A video on how to run wire through grout lines or concrete lines would make a great video idea for the future.

      Like Daniel, I wondered the same. Using the grout line seems to be the way to go, it is the best way to restore the cosmetics after installation. Please do a video on it and highlight the routing technique.

    Can you use garden light’s large well light in hardscape applications? And whit size core drill bit would you use?

    Where can I pickup those core bits? I feel like most of the core bits that I lookup online or all of them that I lookup online is for a hammer drill. Are they universal to fit on a large grinder and im just not familiar? Thanks for your help.

    How did you fish the wire into the first whole you drilled? And where are you located, Florida by any chance?

    Hi guys, how do you get the main wire to the hole in the tile portion? so that it can connect to the mini well light.

    What adaptor is required for a grinder to be able to use a wet/dry core bit?

      I was able to talk with the installer and it looks like there is no adaptor necessary. You just need to make sure you are purchasing the correct core bit accessory that will fit. Thanks!

    Ok this is bad on many levels. Why would you score to the outside of the 15" concrete curb, or however wide it was, in to the grass area? It was a few inches. Why not core down then remove dirt and grass and drill from the outside about 5" down. You need to trench the wire anyway. This way you do not have to go back and fill in. By the wy that was a nice patch but just seemed unneccessary. Now it could have been the speed of you video and you wanted to shorten you time,, but those are wire strippers nd not crimpers. You used the plier end of the strippers for a crimp,, you never do that. Get a pair a dedicated crimpers, or at least if you are going to use stripper/crimper combo, use the crimper then fold it half with a pair side cutters and squeeze the crap out it. Cut that excess wire off the end of the crimp sleeve, That connection was not tight as it should be
