Default Replace Porch Light Bulbs - too high. Is there a trick to this?



I visited a home with a very high entrance fixture, like a outdoor
chandlier, asked how they changed bulbs.

turned out it was on a reel of wire, a retracting cord, they pulled it
down for easy relamping and cleaning right from ground.

The OP coul;d put the fixture on a dimmer with regular bulbs, lamp
life skyrockets at 100 volts if they have access but want to minimize
