Default Landscape Lights Dimming Towards End of Circuit

Hi

I have recently installed 6 (35 Watt) landscape lights, on a 300 Watt
transformer.

It is 12 V AC, on about 50 meters of cable.

You could try adding an additional line, using heavier conductors and
bringing it directly to the last fixture you currently have. Make sure
you don't reverse polarity. :-)

The OP may have overlooked this suggestion -- to configure the conductor as
a loop which terminates back at the transformer. This will make all of the
lights of equal brightness. As JM said -- "Make sure you don't reverse
polarity. :-)" !!



Would that be Style 6 or Style 7?
