    Hi So I bought some deck lights and of course they lasted a few hours and i guess are fit for the bin checked the usual suspects they are just cheap i reckon. They are run off a transformer and YES i got them from Ebay silly me
    Now When putting the deck down i ASSUMED they would work for a few years. Do i need to pull all the decking (NEAR IMPOSSIBLE) or how is the easiest way to replace these as any decking lights i have seen are wired on a daisy chain and would be impossible to swap them over. Anyone had the same problem and how did you sort it. Bloody sorry i put them in now! :mad:

    If you fitted a number of lights and they all failed within a few hours I would suspect a common cause such as the power supply to them. I suggest that you have an electrician or competent handyman look at them to confirm whether or not they are all ready for the bin.

    If they are - removing them would very much depend on the construction of the fittings. It is very unlikely that you would need to start pulling your deck apart to remove them. Perhaps a few photos would help people to comment on how you should proceed.
