Default Can and LED floodlight possibly be as bright as a real floodlight?

The ones that are good enough to be as bright,

if it means not having to go 24 feet up, might

It was the HOA's idea to put this light on my house, for secuirty
reasons, because I live right next to the path that goes into the woods.
(It used by JHS boys going in one direction, and HS boys going in the
other, to their respective schools, but 2 years ago a big tree fell down
blocking the path, with no good way to go around it, and now only one or
two kids use it. ).

Center posted, like yours.
Someone should fine the HOA for the uncleared
tree.


LOL. I hope not. I liked the kids and didn't mind them walking by,
but I'm happy the tree blocks their path. One or two of them would
ride their bikes on the grass, at least one of them even when the ground
was wet. One rider did about 10 times as much damage as one walker, and
one rider when it was wet did about 100 or 1000 times as much damage.

Anyhow, the land beyond mine is owned by Warren Buffett. I just learned
this a while back when the developer-apparent of a small old farm nearby
talked about who he dealt with concerining drainage from his property to
the stream. Well, he didnt deal with Buffet but with someone from his
company, maybe MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company's HomeServices of
America.

Yes, I've heard about HOA and towing
cars, seems to be a major passion of theirs.


Oh, yeah. They'd tow away your house, if they could.

I don't remember the details, but I do know
some folks who were visiting out of town. The
folks said fine to park in front of the house
while you stay over night. Car missing in Am,
$130 plus tow bill.


Darn.
