Re: Garden led lighting

["Brian Milton" <bmilton@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Guys,

Just thinking of how to do this.  I am half way through my decking.
And have started running some cables from house to garage etc.  I am
wondering what cable i can run to control some led lights in the
decking.  Would be nice to have different colors.  But my main line of
thinking is control!!  Would Cat5 do the job? Just run one to every
spot i want an LED then figure out how to contol them after??

Also is Cat5 ok to run outside (Under decking) Not completely exposed.

Any input would be great.

Cheers
B
