Choosing the mini gooseneck light, which is a smaller version of the outdoor gooseneck light, provides illumination in a spot on your patio or near the entryway just as well. Light shining on a shrub or sculpture will make a path or doorway area clearly visible during the dark without shinning harsh light over a whole area.
