Outdoor living means outdoor lighting with glare reduced by placing lights 10 to 20 feet high. Use floodlamps in flood reflectors to illuminate large areas and weatherproof components. Consider wall mounts or tree placements and run a dedicated weatherproof circuit from a fused panel to waterproof splice boxes.
