Lighting Fixtures & Lamps Questions Answered

I need to know the depth of these Dabmar step lights - LV-636 and if they have their own transformer built in or if one needs to be purchased separately. How many lights can go on one transfomer? And what kind of transformer should I use? The riser of the stairs will be made out of granite, will this be a problem using this kind of lighting? 

Answer:
This outdoor lighting fixture can be recessed in the granite, but additionally confirm with your contractor. You will have to buy the transformer separately and they are listed here in our Landscape Lighting Accessories section:  

The wattage on the transformer will depend on the number of light fixtures you have in use. For example, if the LV-636 uses 20W x 6 outdoor lighting fixtures = 120W needed to power all fixtures. Then the transformer rating has to be at least 120W or more. For more info, please visit our outdoor lighting / landscape lighting tutorial.
