Hello,

we want to build a patio roof. Which LED spotlights would you recommend?

Should we use 12V/24V or connect directly to 230V and save the transformer?

What would you recommend?

@wiltshire I spoke with the supplier and I can also use a different hole diameter, I would just need to get the appropriate hole saw.

Which LED spotlights would you then recommend for me? Are the Luxvenum the best choice for us, or would you suggest other options?

I would buy from Luxvenum again at any time and would not look for other equally good alternatives.

3.3V

Okay, I couldn't really find anything better than the ones from Luxvenum.
I didn't know Luxvenum at all before.

Right now, I'm still undecided between the Sonne and Mond models (they shine downward, creating a circle of light and add some height) or the Jupiter ones, which are simply semi-circular.

I wasn’t familiar with them before either. The light fixtures have good light quality and craftsmanship. Recently, I needed a replacement and, lo and behold, I was able to reach people by phone who had the time to help me. That’s no longer something you can take for granted.

@wiltshire I will go with the ones from Luxvenum then

Would you recommend the 24V lights?
So, use 24V lights and then choose the matching transformer

They also have a set with 12V
You specify how many lights you want and the transformer is included
The photo shows a 12V transformer

Both are very similar in price

@wiltshire How would you connect the 24V lamps? Which type of cable would you use?
