Hi folks,
I’m looking at getting some lights installed on my decking ready for the spring/summer.
Is it common to only use on type of light throughout the decking? I am looking at getting a Round IP67 Marine Grade Stainless Steel Led Light - 3000K, but Ive seen a lot of sources saying that using the same light makes the decking look a bit naff.

Above are my opinions Below is my signature.
Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback.
I’m currently looking at my local retailer removed Mod2 Lighting for some but was wondering if there are any other solid recommendations to use before I make a start.

ClivePhillips1986, Nice attempt at spamming. Sadly the lighting retailer you refer to has a website powered by the company name you registered with. :w
