What I was really replying to say is...don't just put them all on one switch. Depending on how the are arranged, I'd suggest 2/2/2 or 3/3. You prob won't always need all the lights on at once, and if gives you more flexability for the cost of a few feet of wire and a couple of extra switches.
Good advice all, I am waiting for some warm weather to try it out. I will add up the amperage to make sure i dont overlaod something if they are all on at once. I will be using 1 circuit for the GFI's. Will I need 12 awg or can I use the 14 gauge wire? Each has a pull chain, but I like the idea of a separate switch for the 3 banks.
I will let you all know how it goes or if I get stumped with it.
Thanks again.
Bud
