We have a standard 3 bed detached house, front door, side door into back of garage/house and rear garden door. Also conservatory on back. Access down far side of house is restricted due to large shed.
Rear garden is approx 12m wide and 14m long with minimum 6' high fences all round.
Front garden is approx 10m long inc large drive. I will likely fit decent front security camera at later date. (Maybe back as well)
Previously I had a low wattage light by the front door and down the side of the house operated by a dusk/dawn sensor. Also a PIR detector covering the front and side that brought on 150w flood lights. Manual flood light at rear for garden.
As we are building an extension above the garage it seems the sensible time to redo all of this. (BCO Notified of owner doing Part P work, although all connections will be in building or fittings so should be irrelevent)
I am looking for ideas for low level dawn to dusk lighting with additional lighting if movement is detected. (I have seen some of the IQ range of Hi-Low spots as sold in B&Q and Screwfix http://www.screwfix.com/search.do;j...2CSTHZOCFFY?_dyncharset=UTF-8&fh_search=99280)
Also suggestions on what you have done and found works well, I don't want to be paying a fortune on electricity!
