Default Integral Lights

Has anyone used Integral lights? I was recommended to them by a friend who said they were easy to install. Let me know your thoughts. Also where is the best place to buy the integral lights?

If I remember correctly the Integral lights are the ones that fit under a wall cap or stair tread, right? I installed these and really like the look. As far as the installation itself goes, it couldn't be easier!!

Default Lights

I installed these Lights on a 500 sq ft patio last summer, and it came out looking very nice. The electronic components with the lights were very high quality. Really the only thing that took some time was grooving out underneath the cap stone.

Here is a pic of the lights installed. The patio was not quite finished, but it will give you a good idea of how it looks.

I purchased lights off this guy from craigslist about a week ago, they were almost like the integral lighting ones, but a fraction of the cost. It sounded like a younger guy, really on the ball, and at 20 bucks a light, you can't go wrong. Same bulbs and everything as the integral lights. Here are the pictures of the lights I got. They have short leads, but heck, for the price I can't complain at all. The guys email address was LVHARDSCAPE@yahoo.com,

The Integral lights look better made but what the hell, it's just an alum housing holding a small bulb. Not a big fan of internet shopping so I'll pay the $35 (approx) wholesale price for the real deal.

Wow, that looks cheap! How long until those bulbs die? LED's offer a MUCH longer life... Going cheap will only slow you down. Try the ambiance lights that pave tech makes! I've been getting a lot of calls over the winter, as 2 of my clients have referred dozens of people for installs once the snow is gone... They cost a bit more, but the other version gms didn't. 5 yr warranty. I parked my truck on one of them to show how durable they were, and they had me put in 30 lights in their driveway the next day.

Default Hardscape Lighting IC Lights

I was recently at a tradeshow in Ohio and ran accross a new hardscape lighitng company called IC Lights. The lights they offered really stuck out to me because they offered 8 different models, some of which had a polished brass finish. They even offered a corner light which look like it would work great on pillars. They guys there were helpful and showed me an example of the quick installation, "very quick." I attached a picture so you guys can see what im talking about.

Default Integral Lighting update

Thanks all for the comments. I decided to try out the lights, got them from http://www.buddingco.com seemed to have the best price. I went with the black powder coated finish it complimented the walls the best. I may try out techo4life's lights if I decide to add on anymore.

Good luck with everyones spring in the great outdoors.
