SNIP
I'd rather go around and make it look like I was changing the bulbs and but about .25oz of C4 in each one. Then come evening and BANG their all gone. If these lights were all on the same timer circuit, it would be terrible if one of the fixtures developed a short circuit, let's say from a light bulb with a defective base, or from a tiny piece of stray metal in the socket. The circuit breaker might trip when the lights came on and someone would have to go around and individually check each fixture. What a chore that would be! Jim |

There are 10 total lights, within the center section there's 6 of them on two
photocells that are up on two buildings. I do know where the main switchs are and could just flip them. But I'm just going to try to get "The Beast" running again next month and then I'll be able to not only go up to my corner, but one some nights go up to my viewing spot that's all alone and away from people. -- "In this universe the night was falling,the shadows were lengthening towards an east that would not know another dawn.
