hi i thought maybe someone on this group could help. i have an
aluminum gate that surrounds my house, with several concrete columns
every 15 feet. . they are about 150 to 200 feet away from my house.
i would lvoe to put some lights on the outside of them, however, i've
called several electricians and have been told it's extremely
complicated and expensive, especially since we have to pull permits.
i was thinkng the ideal situation would be to simply place a wireless
wall sconce on the columns, then i wouldn't ahve to deal with
electrical wiring. Maybe something solar, or possibly flourescent
lightingof some kind that does not need a lot of power, but that is
wireless. i've looked EVERYWHERE on line and cannot find any decent
looking exterior wireless wall lights for sconces.


any ideas?


yes. enjoy the beauty of darkness where you will be allowed
to see the spectacular lights hung on nothing in the night sky.
you won't need an electrician or a permit and the fuel cost are
very reasonable for powering your dark yard.

however, if you reside in a city where light pollution has
already robbed you of any chance whatsoever of enjoying the
beauty of darkness then my suggestion will not work for you.


You know.. That's a good idea!


yep, most every night after it gets dark I enjoy a cup of
coffee while I gaze at the stars. the money I'm saving
powering my energy efficient darkness allows me to buy more
coffee.



We moved some 5 miles away from the place we WERE in.. It's amazing how
many more stars you can see..


nice to be able to enjoy something before it is ruined by
those moving in on top of your location who prefer street
lights, yard lights and other sources of light pollution.
sad how it is they never know how far reaching the destruction
of their lights can be.



It's funny though, off to the north east you can see the Arora Borealis
that is Wal*Mart.. Kills all the stars in that section of the sky.


that's one of the death rays from urbanization.



So glad we moved out into the county.


I'm glad you are able to enjoy living in the rural
country before it is all gone. noticed yet how well
you can actually see in the night after your eyes adjust?

enjoy...- Hide quoted text -

Hi my name is Will - I'm new to google groups but i was searching and
saw that someone needs solar lighting and we do that here in Australia
- now you'd need a little bit of wires but we do a 1 + 3 Watt LED that
is BRIGHT! We are still in R&D mode but would be more than willing to
work with you to try and sort something out. The fittings are very
clean and will be popsted soon. anywho check some of our other
products out www.colinklupiec.com
