One of the things we’ve been planning for the new house is to have downlight in the eaves. A ton of our neighbors in the area have done it and we really like the look. Travis had done a bunch of research and decided on a particular light and has mapped out the locations around the house where we’ll put them. What we didn’t know for sure is where exactly on the eave they’d go relative to the wall (i.e. close to the brick or more towards the edge of the eave. Consequently we found ourselves at the house last night in the dark trying out various locations to determine the optimal distance. We’re pretty certain that most of our builders customers don’t do this type of thing - probably because they aren’t crazy.
The permanent ones won’t have wires hanging down like that. 😁
In case you’re wondering, we decided that the center of the light should be 20” from the brick.
