LED lights are one of the smartest choices for outdoor lights, especially if they are going to be left on all night. That's because LED bulbs are cheaper to run than other kinds of bulb, and they also tend to last a long time, too. Additionally, LED light bulbs often come in a range of different colours.
The easiest way to begin is with lights that are attached to the property – so wall lights or ceiling pendants that are IP-rated for use outside. Adding lights to distant hedgerows and drives can be a little more complicated, but it's nothing a competent electrician can't handle.

A lot depends on what you need them for. An atmospheric outdoor pendant light for the patio doesn't need to be as dazzling as a floodlight designed to deter intruders. It's often best to experiment with different bulbs (or dimmer switches) to get the right mix. Do remember, though, to show consideration for neighbours when fitting outdoor lights. No one wants to be awakened in the middle of the night by your lights coming on.
It depends which report you read! Some studies say yes, others seem less sure. One thing that is certainly true in this day and age of CCTV and doorbell cameras is that a burglar who sets off a PIR floodlight or is otherwise illuminated by outdoor lighting is more likely to be clearly captured on video. In fact, better lighting was part of a £500,000 initiative announced by Ipswich Borough Council in the summer of 2022 aimed at reducing crime.
Lights sold as outdoor lights and rated as IP44 or higher are safe to use in the rain.
