Lighting for dark stairs all over creepy house (gotta be a solution)
Any lighting ideas to illuminate sunken room's stairs not near an outlet?
I visited a friend at her creepy house and almost broke my neck on the miriad of onesey-twoseys stairs in the multi-level house. Many rooms have two or three small steps, which, in the dark, get you by surprise. Her birthday is in the middle of January (15th). Is there battery-operated stair-lighting that can be given as a birthday gift or some other glow-in-the-dark idea so nobody breaks their neck at night? |

Battery powered motion lights, might fit the bill. Mounted
at baseboard height. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=95276 Takes three or four AA cells, and lasts a while. Motion activated, one LED. Also good in the bathroom, for late night potty runs. -- Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. "Pat Lyndon" wrote in message ...

I'll listen to suggestions about how to light my house, but I'd be offended if someone bought me some lighting and expected me to install it. You're supposed to stub your toes in someone else's house at night. That's just part of life. Have a carrot or two next time. |
