Hi guys I would appreciate a few pointers here.
I am planning to fit a row of 5 halogen downlights at the front of my house connected to a PIR sensor.
Do I need to fit IP44 or IP65 downlights ? A friend has told me I need neither and just to fit normal ones but I'm not so sure about this. They are quite well hidden under the soffits of the house and won't be battered by rain but surely they must need to have some kind of moisture resistance if they will be outdoors ?
Also, should I pick lights which have an individual tranny feeding each bulb or can I get one with 5 plug in sockets which can feed all 5 bulbs ?
Thanks in advance for any tips.
