Where I live the sky glows along the horizon from all the lighting and you can only see the brightest stars. When I'm out in darker areas on a clear night I feel like I'm on a different planet.

I always like when a thread can teach us something for our trailers and in this case also our homes. This is informative.

Having a personal opinion is not judging, it is just expressing ones own thoughts, beliefs and practices on topics. You wouldn't believe how many times I was asked why the heck I did many of the things I have to my trailer. And then there is the bigger rest of my life.........

Something I get groaned at about a fair bit.

Jim: I was referring to the (incorrect?) insinuation that this installation was contributing to light pollution. While it might seem an unnecessary mod to some if used properly (certain light spectrums) and with consideration (reasonably dimmed) it could in fact be less obtrusive than standard high mounted exterior lights. Also could provide for a safer environment around the full trailer perimeter if walking around it at night. Just trying to promote an objective discussion.

WE had a fuel line and portion of a gas tank eaten by squirels a few yrs ago..found out that Jeep used PEANUT OIL-based lines that year..great.. $1100 wasted.
