    Soffit/Eave LED Lighting

    I went with the 3" remodel can lights from home depot. I paid about $13 apiece I believe. They use GU10'S so I used the LED's. A little expensive, but they last a long time and are easy on the light bill. They are all wired to 120 volt timer switch I put in the garage. I have 5 in the...
