ItsMeBobO Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Interesting I so want to try this but. My street light is in the middle of our cul-du-sac with buried wires. There is no accessible electric out there and running it would cross traffic. That is why I was thinking about a switch to cut power. A battery LED maybe but it would be on all the time.

If it takes them 2 months to come and change out a bulb my thoughts are they going to come and take the trash bags off everyday that I put them back on?

trooperblazer Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I have one street light across from my driveway. Another street light kitty corner from me. I live on a corner lot. And another street light in my neighbors yard. My house is lit up on three sides from streetlights. I can’t do anything about the light across from my driveway and across the corner from me but the one in my neighbors yard I turn that one into a fire stick LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisMayer Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 i put a light bulb and got it on top of the sensor and set it on a timer started at 7 pm and turned off at 9:30 pm - the street light would come back on after the show worked great, except 1 neighbor who hated the traffic would call in the electric company and they would come pull down the light I would just put it back Bah Humbug 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All my old neighbors that used to be here loved it, and they are coming back to watch it this year. We're just hoping the new folks don't put a damper on it.?
