For a large scope commercial-sized project, should I use high-voltage landscape lighting? or low voltage? Why would I choose one or the other? Which is best? Thanks!

Line voltage (120V) fixtures provide maximum light output and installation flexability. Many lamp types are available to the line voltage system: incandescent, fluorescent, Mercury Vapor, Metal Halide, and other H.I.D. The H.I.D. fixtures have greater life span and lighting intensity - perfect for permanent commercial installations. Line voltage systems are ideal for large landscape projects, because the allowable distance from the power source to the fixtures is unlimited.

 If this description meets your requirements, then 120 voltage is the right choice for you.

 Low voltage fixtures provide high lumen outputs at low wattages. Incandescent and Halogen lamps are the most common lamp types. Low voltage systems are limited to the distance allowed from the power source to the fixtures. Because of that limit, low voltage systems are less permanent and ideal for residential installations.

 If you are seeking an easy installation and a system that can be modified with time, then low voltage is the best option for you.
