What is the best way to install step lights on wood pillars?

I have ten pillars that I want to install wall mounted low voltage lights to. Planning to drill hole through wall, approx 16" to back side - run lamp cable through hole then on to the next, etc. and connect to transformer. Distance between pillars is approx. 5 feet. What transformer(s) should I use, do I need two? Any technical suggestions? Does this lamp come in any other finishes? Thanks.

Sounds like a good plan. I would split up the runs to the Arroyo 12 volt step lights into more than one feed. That way you will not experience dim lights caused by voltage drop.

Check out our designing low voltage lighting systems information page for valuable tips and suggestions.

I would purchase a Techlight 300 watt outdoor lighting transformer and Techlight 12/2 direct burial cable for a successful installation.

For now, all we have is verde green in this model. Feel free to contact RLLD toll free at 800-239-2939 for more step lighting ideas.
