Harbor Freight..(easy to make lights)
wrote in message ...
I and a friend have also taken these floating 12-volt fishing lights from Walmart. They have a styrofoam case that makes them float, light facing into the water. You just wire them into your 12-volt landscape lights. Easy to do. The lights sell in the 5-8 dollar range. MIKE Ok, I grabbed one of these lights (They do look like easy pond lights!).. any resource for the 12 volt adapters though? The cheapest thing at Lowe's was $40 or so... -- Gareee© Homepage: http://www.fortunecity.com/tattooine.../mainframe.htm Custom Figures, Wallpapers and more! |

Should've picked one up while you were at Wally World -- $40 there will get you a kit with ~20 lights, a 12V transformer, and a few other odds and ends. Should be able to score just a transformer for well under that. Just ask where the "landscaping lights" are. |

Should be able to score just a transformer for well under that. Just ask where the "landscaping lights" are. I already have solar lights, so don't need (or want) the low wat lights.. they are a pain to setup, and maintain. (Last set we had always seemed to have some problem, and the way the lights hooked up to the wireing was a nightmare!) Solars are *so* much better.. just pop them into the ground, and forget them. Plus, if you want to redo your lighting, there's no hassle at all. (we actually re-arrange our lights every few months.) so I really just need the 12 volt transformer. -- Gareee© Homepage: http://www.fortunecity.com/tattooine.../mainframe.htm Custom Figures, Wallpapers and more! |
