Begin by assessing the desired locations for your low-voltage lights on the deck. The video initially shows a common mistake: placing the small LED lights directly on the horizontal treads of the steps. The correct approach, as demonstrated later, is to place them on the vertical riser of each step. This allows the light to shine downwards onto the step surface, illuminating it effectively without shining directly into a person's eyes.
