Ok, so one of the options that the house we are having built is eave down lights. I really like these and wanted to add about a dozen or so of them around the house. Well I was informed that they charge around $150 each for them and I said forget it thinking I would just find them myself and install after we move in. I have searched the internet high and low and can not find them anywhere and I have looked at all the stores around here with any kind of lighting with no luck.

These just appear to be about a 4" can light with a halogen bulb and a very short mounting depth. I am unsure if they are rated for outdoor or not since they are tucked into the eave and really will not be affected by weather.

If you know anything about where to get these, please help.

Damn, I posted a link yesterday in this thread I thought and now it is gone. I was going to use the link to look at some LED lights.

Our house has those lights and it looks great at night and it has a light sensor that detects when the sun goes down the lights come on and vise versa. I put in those CLF bulbs and they "barely" up the electric bill. Well worth it for the looks.

I plan on doing this too. I was going to use Malibu low voltage lighting. They have some architectural grade light assemblies that could be retrofitted for surface mount easy enough.

EDIT: You would do very well to decide on what you want to put in and run the wiring yourself before the eaves and facia is up.

Yeah, I deleted that thread and started the exact same thread again because MILK is a total douche. I am just hoping that the ones you posted will be enough light. The ones I am used to seeing use some sort of halogen bulb.

I have a box full of these that I was willing to give you at my price but you are the one trying to be funny about perfume and shit. I never said or did anything to fuck your thread up. Goodluck getting your lights and trying to be the funny guy.
