Advantages  of outdoor lighting

Light fixtures attached to a
continuous device called a track, for lighting or decoration are called track
lighting.  There is indoor track
lighting and outdoor track lighting. 
Track lighting that is installed inside the house is mainly for work
lighting, as in an art gallery, to illuminate a series of paintings.  Outdoors, however, track lighting is used
both as a functional and decorative
luminaire.

Benefits of outdoor
track lighting

The main advantage
of outdoor lighting is that a lot of space can be saved on the ground, as it
is hung from above, perhaps on a continuous high beam or hung in a tree.  Since several luminaires are connected to a
single electrical outlet, a lot of space can be illuminated without taking up
much space.

The other advantage of outdoor track
lighting is its versatility.  There are
flexible track lighting options that allow you to direct light in whichever
way you choose.  You can also choose
how many lights you want on a single track and how to place
them.

The third advantage is that outdoor track
lighting is very easy to install.  In
most cases, homeowners can install it themselves, with just the basic
understanding of wiring.

Another advantage is
that outdoor track lighting, especially the flexible ones, can be hung at a
height of your choice.  They are
flexible in their placement, and there is no question of anyone tripping over
wires or bumping into a lamp.

Track lighting can
be an ideal method for outdoor lighting because you do not need different
electrical outlets for each of the luminaires on the track.  Therefore, the electrical outlet is often
inside the house and the track can go out of the house to the garden and
light specific points to either beautify it or to provide
light.

The disadvantages of outdoor
track lighting

The luminaires on
the tracks cannot operate independently. 
This is a major disadvantage of outdoor track lighting.  You can not choose to light only one or
two.  You can not fog any.  They will all be lit or they will all be
turned off.

Another disadvantage is that outdoor
track lighting cannot flood an area with light.  They can only decorate a few specific
points.  On the Christmas tree they
look good as decorative candles, but beyond the tree they shine a little
light.  You can not read under a track
light.  You need a different type of
light source for that.
