Ok. We are not thinking about the same problem.

I was thinking nothing existed. If new circuits had to be run and switches cut in (maybe 3-way or 4-way), boxes, maybe even a gfi breaker for an extra outside branch circuit if new capacity was need, etc... it would be a different story in terms of cost... material and labor!

4 exterior lights installed on new circuits, switched and zoned front/back for $600, sounded like a pretty good deal to me.
