I admit to being a SLOW learner. Well, I will plead that the speed of battery/LED lights has been overwhelming. I put an inexpensive battery-powered motion-detector light to shine on my roundbale. It is so much easier to flake off now for the evening feeding. I have the sensor turned so the horses can't trip it. With the LED lights, it is bright and the batteries will last a long time only being used for 5-10 minutes a night. I had no idea that the technology had gotten this good.

It's funny when that little light bulb goes off in your head and you wonder "why didn't I think of this earlier"  Have had many moments like that! |

That would be good for our hay shed. The light gets left on fairly often (but at least the horses get fed in early evening while I'm working my odd hours instead of having to wait for me to get home). Longer days is helping with that.

You are right--most of the year isn't a problem. So, when it is nice out, we just don't get around to fixing the winter lights. I am getting real fond of these motion-sensor lights. I have a couple hard-wired and a couplw more battery-powered for places with no electritity. You can get them wired with a plug-in as well
