Motion sensor lights, what is everyone using?

I am looking to hardwire motion lights on all side of the rig for security. A quick search came up with the MG1000 or the Starlight SL1000, I read the SL100 does not do well in the sun and the MG1000 is much brighter. Any thoughts, feedback other products?

I agree. Why would you need them. Unless you are boon docking away form EVERYBODY. And if that is the case, You wouldn't be afraid of the dark any way.

As mentioned. Using them in a Campground. will only upset every one else. I know that IF your scare lights came on every time I stepped out of my Camper. We would have to have a talk. I don't need you to light up my bedroom.

BTW. Tacky lights should be turned off at bed time as well.

Use infrared game cameras they do not bother the neighbors and are much better at capturing any critter that approaches your property.

Raccoons will start playing with the lights. It also helps them find your stuff so that they can scatter it all over the place.
May I ask why you are doing this?

Sorry but unnecessary. why would you want them on all 4 sides? If they are like all motion lights they will come on even if a leave falls.

Bad idea!

At first I was not going to say anything but then I thought more about it. First off I would look at the range of the motion switch. As sites are close together your light would most likely be shining in my living room window. If your sensor turns on between one and three feet no more. Lots of folks walk their dog on the parks streets, is your light going to come on every time.

I am sorry I just think its a bad idea and not thinking about your fellow rvers.
