Outside lighting question
Discussion
Looking at building our patio in then next month or so, and want to add some lights to the scheme.
Basicaly we have an outside feed (light switch inside the house for operation) and we want the following
4 of these;

2 of these

and 3 of these
http://www.mr-resistor.co.uk/item.aspx?&g=16&a...
Can they all be hooked up on this one light switch?
I have been told i will need one of these as well

Is all this possible and if so what else would i need to buy to do this?

If I've got it right the lights you have linked to, and the quantities, add up to a total of 33w when they're all on.
So that's fine in terms of load on the circuit.
That switch thing assumes you want remote control of whats on and when? A conventional 4 gang light switch will do the same thing manually and cost 15 quid.
The lengths of cable runs might have an impact on things though.
Actually, thinking about it, my electrical knowledge is limited (and out of date). Someone else will be along shortly I'm sure.
