150 W, about 25 ft in height.
That's about like a 1,000 W incandescant.

So I figger a 70W would be more than enough, mebbe even a 50 would do.
He said they also use 70's in other fixtures.

The bulbs I saw at a local hardware store said 24,000 hours, as well.

No more Lovers' Lane around Angst's house.... no more condoms.....


Oh, heavens! For that, just put up a sign: "Smile: You're on Video
Surveillance!" with a couple of dummy camera-looking boxes. ;-)

Good Luck!

NAA, put up REAL cameras and post the footage online, might even make a
buck out of the deal....
