I'm trying to avoid access panels in the slate (which is 25-35mm thick)....by locating the transformers to the side of the patio... Each light (3 lights per transformer) come with 5m of cable and I need 6m for one of the lights... The LED's are 0.12W each, so each light is 1.2W... I'm...

As the WWW site suggests, the lights were originally manufactured in Italy, but are now sourced from the Far East. The vendor has been no use whatsoever in helping me ascertain who exactly to contact to do what you suggest. Typical modern-day supplier...not interested in the product just the...

I recently bought a set of LED uplighters from Litecraft for locating in my patio. Here: http://www.litecraft.co.uk/Products/Product.asp?id=3899 However, the provided cable does not stretch long enough for my application so I need some extension cable to allow the lights to be located at...

marshman, Thanks. oilman, At 0.12w each, I think it'll be minimal. Compared to the airport I live next to which I can see from 150 miles away on approach, I'm fairly sure I won't be able to see my patio illumination. :D

For one reason or another I've only just reached the stage where I'm ready to go with this project. Just to clarify for the DIY patio-installing newbie... The "SDS" arbor (as opposed to a "hex" arbor) is essentially just an adapter which sits in the "SDS" drill chuck and mates to the core...

Symptoms, Thanks. The LED link I presume? The first uplighter @ £11.49 requires a 30mm hole. When I thought about it some more, this is a tiny light, so I'm now aiming for a 110mm hole. I'll get the relevant SDS drill (with a clutch - I've already broken other bones this year!)...

Deluks, Tolerance? Well I am merely going to drop a few of these (http://www.thegardenlightingshop.co.uk/products.asp?c=198&d=3) into the holes, and they look like they have significant flanges, so I don't suppose they need to be exactly 30mm.... Do the core drills cut a hole of...

Symptoms, I was wondering whether I needed a SDS drill of a particular power rating (800W?) in order to turn what would be a pretty hefty drill bit to drill a 30mm hole in slate? For example...

As the subject title suggests, can someone point me in the direction of a tool that will drill a 30mm diameter hole in 30mm thick slate? I need to make the holes for some LED uplighters to be mounted in the patio tiles? In addition, is there a reasonably priced slate saw/cutter that will...
