After pricing up a customers bathroom refurb, it has prompted me to do
something about my own bathroom.
The fittings are all ok, but the walls and ceiling are very dated (6"
white tiles, only around the bath,with grout going grey,ceiling in white
emulsion that has started to peel in a couple of places etc).

The tiling and ceiling will be done in the usual way - buy whatever I
can afford, then put it up when I get time.
But before I start on that, I'd like to put in new lighting.

I have seen one bathroom where there is a PIR sensor inside the door,
which lights up around 6 ceiling mounted low voltage
spotlights/downlights.
I'd like to replicate this.

How many lights are required (12v 20w iirc) to illuminate a ~6 feet
square bathroom?

I was thinking 4, plus an extra combined fan/light over the bath.
Are there any kits with the PIR included?

I am putting four IP65 down lighters (they take 50w lamps but I think 20w
should be enough) over the shower tray and a 38 watt IP44 over the loo and
sink.

The down lighters are going to be near the walls to illuminate the walls.
They are flat aquabords so they shouldn't have odd shadows and such that you
get if they are unlevel.

If that isn't enough I will have to fit some more.
