Thanks for the suggestions - I think the solar ones are probably out
anyway
, as I don't want to light up the drive all night, just when reversing

the
car , so I think that's either radio or PIR controlled.



It is a pity you cannot get hold of the "high intensity cats eyes" that

they
are using in some parts of the country on trial runs. There are a couple

of
these that I know about and they have been running for a few years. It is
possible to drive a car on an unlit road without headlights and the eyes
look like an airport landing strip. Does anyone know more about these

"cats
eyes" and how they work.

Thanks.

Do you know where there are any of these LED cats eyes? I have never
seen any in "real life" on the road.
