    You should make a video about connecting them in series

    How well would this perform in cold/snowy climates?

      Just pull more wire. The Wago connector usually have a third slot for daisy chaining lights. I'd recommend piloting all the spots and verifying in the attic crawl space that you can get wire to those spots. Then drill the holes and pull wire loops. In one side and out the other of the box.

    Wish they would’ve shown hooking both ends up, not just the light. But good start.

      Hello!
      Unfortunately, we do not carry an option that will repel bugs. Typically you will want to go with something very yellow in color.

      I think that's just what happens on Earth. Having a light outside at night will attract insects. Just a fact of life

    Does anyone know if this is available in a square light?

    Where do we get that extra wire from the inside ? Is there a video on how we can get electrical connection where we need it? Thanks

    How about if you are installing multiple lights?

    Do most people install this wide of a beam angle in soffits? These look to be about 120 degrees. What's most commonly used for this purpose?

    • @theohill1050
      @theohill1050 Před 4 lety +1

      This is a good light for single placement or far in between. I'd recommend this wide of a beam for a doorway/ garage door or along a long walkway.

    What kind of wiring does this take?

  • @raczyk
    @raczyk Před 4 lety +2

    Can this be done as a DIY, or do you need an electrician, since electrical is involved?

      razz P electrical work is very dangerous. Never work with electrical wires unless you know what the hell your doing..

      Hiring a licensed Electrician isn't a terrible idea. Better safe than sorry especially when it comes to shock potential.

      This is pretty basic to wire but you asking that tells me you should probably hire it done.
