BEST BUDGET FRIENDLY EXTERIOR LANDSCAPE LIGHT
How To Buy: Lumens.com Cutsheet: Focus Industries DL-21 Directional Lights Color Rendering: 90+ (never buy LEDs that have a score less than 90). A score of 80 is actually worse than fluorescent lighting. Color Temperature: 3000K Lumens: 281 lumens per light Wattage: 12 watts per light Power Supply/Driver: Included with the purchase of the adjustable light. Indoor/Outdoor: Approved for outdoor (wet) locations where the lights won't be submerged in water. Saving Cost: This is already a fairly cost effective lighting strategy for landscaping. A possible alternate strategy could be to consider string festival lighting.
