I thought it was considered disrespect for the flag if you fly it at night.
You are supposed to take it down at sunset.

Hey all -
Any experience with what type of lighting is best for lighting a flag?
It's going to be about 25' up, and the flag is approx 5' long.
I'd prefer to get as tight a beam as possible on the flag, so as not to
**** off the neighbors at night.
Thanks
Matt
I use a 45-watt spot lamp made for outdoor use. It's a Halogen lamp
made by GE. Looks just like the flood lamps used for security
lighting, but the beam is only 12-degrees wide. Bought it at Home
Depot. The only thing that lights up is the flag and the pole.
Nothing shoots up into the sky.
