27 true LED watts is a lot of light. Premium high wattage rope lighting is rather nice inside, wending its way around fixtures and cabinets. A dimmer provides slick control. 3,000 Kelvin color temperature seems to be a favorite.
You chose 270 watts worth of fixtures. I have purchased a total of seven 300-watt light bars for locals. To give you a rough idea of what that means, one 54" 300 watt light bar (like used in the Baja 1000 off-road race) allows me to read a newspaper (uncomfortably) at 200' distance for a cross-span of more than a hundred feet.
For fog light purposes, utility lights are worse than useless.
I learned long ago about not placing outdoor lighting near a door. My patio lighting is divorced with cross beam lighting at edges of patio. A nighttime bug-o-rama takes the bloom off the rose.
Good luck in your venture. I sure had fun doing it!
