Intermatic LX19414T Malibu Outdoor Lighting Kit with Ten Path Lights, Four FloodLights, and 60-Watt Power Pack, Black
What a difference 14 lights and 75 feet of cable can make.

If you're looking to illuminate your yard and house without spending a ton of money this kit has everything you need. The kit comes with a combination of path and flood lights that, once installed, can really transform the nighttime appearance of your house and yard. The path lights cast just the right amount of light, and the floodlights can be adjusted from spot to flood for different applications or visual effects. As an added bonus, the low-voltage engineering means that they won't cost you a lot of money to use.

Plastic is the main construction material here, and they do seem a little flimsy-you may want to spend a little more money for something sturdier if you'll be installing your lights in areas where they might get in the way of a mower or flying soccer balls. Barring this kind of impact, however, these lights are sturdy enough. Note that there is a fair amount of assembly required for each light. This takes a little time, but is more than offset by the kit's affordability.

Overall a good, economical lighting system that will make a huge difference in how your yard and house look after the sun goes down.--Josh Dettweiler
