LOVE this fixture. Installing 3 of these in Colleyville along with other LED fixtures for a gorgeous front yard design.
The BEST Connections

Alex is soldering the connections. Then we cap it with a silicone filled direct burial wire nut for THE BEST electrical connection possible. We work hard to be sure that everything about the lighting installation is top quality!
Improper 120 volt installation
0
This is a good 120 volt fixture, but it’s installed poorly. Why? The cable is just laying on the ground! It;s required by NEC code to be installed below grade in conduit – for safety! We’ll be re-doing ALL of this.
LED – a beautiful light
0This is a sample of the light output form a new Kichler LED fixture. It’s so similar to what we currently use for a 20 watt lamp it’s unbelievable. Using 75% less power, this light has beautifully diffused edges with no indication of the center hot spot we sometimes see with lesser quality halogen MR lamps. We’ll put this into test at our showroom and let you know how it does. So far I like the warm color, the even distribution of light and the compact size of the fixture. I must say I don’t care for the tiny screws that attach the front hood, which is sold as an accessory.

Roses

I think summer smells the best. I like fall really well too – football, brisk fall air, the first scent of a fireplace burning.
But summer smells like roses and jasmine. Mmmmmmmm
But do you light roses? I have mixed feelings about it.
On the one had, wow, they really add color and beauty to the garden in the summer.
On the other hand, they are just a thorny stick in a mulch pile in the winter.
So I’d say, if there are other elements nearby, as in this garden, which has boxwood, lambs ears, and is refreshed with annual color all year – go ahead and put in a downlight that can show the color and texture of the gorgeous roses.
Copper Moon Path Lights
0These path lights are robust and beautiful.
They start out shiny, but over time the copper takes on a natural patina that goes with any landscape.
The Finest Electrical Connection
0We pride ourselves on our quality installations. We’re confident that our underground splices will withstand the Texas elements. We solder the connection, then cap it with a special direct-burial moisture proof splice.
Best in the business.
That’s why we can offer a FULL ONE YEAR WORKMANSHIP WARRANTY.

Glowing Orb
Here’s a little night-time magic I created by lighting a hand blown watering orb with a hidden landscape light fixture.
