Check our Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I purchase Lite the Nite products?
You can purchase our products through any wholesale landscape, hardscape, irrigation, or electrical distributor. If your local distributor is not already an established partner, they can easily be added by contacting us directly. Additionally, since Lite the Nite is headquartered in the state of Illinois, if you are an IL based contractor or end user, you have the opportunity to purchase factory direct.
Do you provide landscape design assistance?
Yes, we are happy to provide suggestions for any type of lighting design per request.
Can I install landscape lighting myself?
For best results, we recommend homeowners find a certified professional landscape lighting installer. However, since this is a low voltage system, end users do have the opportunity to install themselves.
How does low voltage landscape lighting work? What are the basics to a landscape lighting installation?
It begins with understanding what you want to illuminate and how to get wire from the power source to the light fixture. It all starts with the transformer, the power source. It plugs into a GFCI-protected outdoor electrical outlet and "steps down" your house current from 120 volts to 12 volts.
Next up: laying the cable. Low-voltage electrical cable is designed to be buried underground. It runs from the transformer to each light fixture in your system.
After the lights are connected, you're ready to go. Most transformers are equipped with a 24-hour timer that allows you to decide when the lights go on and off automatically.

Besides making my home look nice, what advantages are there to landscape lighting?
First, it adds security without looking gaudy. No longer does a security light need to be just a flood light hung above the garage. There are various lighting options and just having extra light around your property makes a thief think twice.
Second, it adds safety. If your pathways, stairways, driveway and gardens are well-lit, you don't have to worry about a guest tripping or losing their way in the dark.
Third, it extends the ability to use your outdoor space. It's great when on those warm summer nights you can use your yard and deck late into the night, and still enjoy your landscaping.
Lastly, it adds value to your home. As much as a 50% return because of all the reasons mentioned above, plus it modernizes your home.
