A few years back, I go out on my porch one summer night.

It’s dark. Not because of night, well, yes, because of night, but my main outdoor light had blown. Sits on top of about a 17 foot pole.

So I went up there and got it and replaced it. It was a sodium-vapor light.

It’s on a photo sensor so it comes on auto at dark. And had been coming on for all the time I lived hear and even before, I estimate it had burned and worked good for more than 17 years.

Not only that, your smart choice also saved you about 2/3rds the cost for electricity to operate it over that period.
