<pre class="k9mail">I did the lollipop snowplow reflectors and they kept twisting in the wind so I'd need to go correct them every once in a while, plus they looked hokey. But, they worked. A reflector post, like on roadsides, on a 4x4, now you have me thinking. One issue that comes to mind is, people walking up the driveway could trip on them, especially when the garage carriage lights are relatively bright compared to everything else in their field of view and would blind them to ground based obstacles. <br><br>Maybe I need some kind of top reflector as well.

Ideally I'd have something like this; double ideally they'd be directional so they were only visible to someone backing down the driveway. And they'd need to be somewhat stout to deal with weather, errant feet, etc., but I think that's mostly an installation issue. Have any of you done anything like this? <br><br>The project in the link below is a bit more complex than I want to get into but it gives you an idea. I'd like solar powered with a daylight sensor. I don't have an easy way to run power to the driveway. The bulky pathway lights at $30 apiece is way out of budget. <br><br><a href="https://www.pinterest.com/pin/14847873742968238/">https://www.pinterest.com/pin/14847873742968238/</a><br><br>thanks,<br>jim<hr></blockquote></blockquote><hr>Shop-talk@autox.team.net<br>Donate: <a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br>Suggested annual donation $12.96<br>Archive: <a href="http://www.team.net/pipermail/shop-talk">http://www.team.net/pipermail/shop-talk</a> <a href="http://autox.team.net/archive">http://autox.team.net/archive</a><br><br>Unsubscribe/Manage: <a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/shop-talk/neiljsherry@talktalk.net">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/shop-talk/neiljsherry@talktalk.net</a><br><br></pre></blockquote></div><br>-- <br>Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
