These low voltage deck lights can add a great look to any outdoor space! These were an easy DIY, with just a simple 1" forstner bit (or spade bit). If your deck is already complete, you can retrofit these - you just may need to remove a board or two, depending on your accessability.
As there is 18" of wire on either side of each light, consider your spacing when deciding how many to buy. About 24"-30" is good for spacing between each perimeter light and it will allow the joining cables to go under joists to connect with each other. If you needed a larger span, you could buy an extender to give you added leeway. I was happy to have the extenders when joining the perimeter lights to the lights in the stairs.

Feel free to look at them here and search for them on your country's Amazon.
I'm very happy with how easy they were to install and how great they operate. Provides a nice safety warning for the edge of the deck (even though it's only about a 16 or 18" jump down. I wouldn't want someone to fall!
