Decking Lights

    I purchased decking lights in B&Q approx 10 years ago. They have stopped working and I am looking to replace. The lights I have are 70mm diameter with a cut out hole of 56mm or 58mm. I am struggling to find replacements that fit the existing cut out hole?

    Any suggestions on replacements or alternative solution? Cheers.

    This is the only info I have on the lights I have.

    I would just look for 70mm decking lights, these are likely to have the same size hole as yours.
    I’d assume you’ll be changing out the transformer too anyway.

    Yes I will be changing the transformer as the lights are not available in B&Q anymore.

    Struggling to find 70mm decking lights to be honest. Finding 30mm, 45mm & 60mm with ease.

    Anyone know anything about them? Or if there is a stockist in Ireland?

    Just to give an alternative approach.... when you say they have stopped working....
    Have they all stopped?
    Is it just the power supply thats goosed? Might it be better to just replace that?

    Cheers for the suggestion. The LEDs in my lights are rusted and some have even disintegrated.

    Another option I am thinking is replacing 2 planks and getting rid of the current lights and putting in a new set of common sized spot lights.
