1. IP rating and exposure
Match IP to rain exposure. Covered porches tolerate lower ratings; open courtyard walls need sealed fittings and corrosion-resistant hardware.
2. Solar vs mains
Solar needs clear daytime charge and decent battery chemistry; mains suits bright security washes and cloudy winters.
3. Beam, glare and neighbours
Downlights and shielded sconces reduce neighbour glare. Aim beams at paths, not bedroom windows.
4. Sensors and timers
PIR sensors cut power use; dusk-to-dawn photocells help solar and mains alike. Test false triggers from pets.
