Interesting. We have some solar LED lights around the back patio area that have a yellowish tint. I've noticed sometimes those black beetles will sit on the sides of them at night. |

I remember long ago when the Georgia Power Company advertised the "Dusk to Dawn" lighting program for various locations watched over by the photocells to turn lighting on and off mentioned in earlier postings. |

My entire sub has Dusk to Dawn lamp post lighting, gladly 99% of the folks keep them lit. Without streetlights with the number of folks walking at night it could be dangerous w/o them. I actually have 4 in my yard, glad they are LED bulbs now..... |

Back when we lived in rural township outside of Calgary it was a requirement to have a pole light but one was never put on our place and no one ever came around and checked so I didn't bother.
Our city has over the past couple of years changed all the street lighting to LED's and it's quite different at night, seems much darker, because these new fixtures direct the light down to the roadway without the spillover onto your front lawns and the front of your house. In our backyard I bought a LED solar floodlight of 10,000 lumens iirc and it really lights up the backyard. A few months back our cars were gone thru in the middle of the night, the one night I forgot to lock them, so I also installed to light up over the driveway when anyone approaches.. happy with them. They use rechargeable AA's which are easily replaced. |
