So why do some people feel they need to leave their security lights on all night? For the last several months the campers on either side of us have left the security lights burn all night and we have to keep the curtains and blinds pulled just to sleep because it's so bright out. Then a couple trailers down have there clearance (indicator)lights wired so the look like a christmas tree all night? Just needed to vent. skipnchar • View posts Topeka or somewhere else Senior Member Joined: 12/17/2003 View Profile Posted: 03/09/10 08:25pm Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator IF you figure that one out please publish it. How can they be afraid of something that would itself be scared off by a light? 2011 F-150 HD Ecoboost 3.5 V6. 2550 payload, 17,100 GCVWR - 2004 F-150 HD (Traded after 80,000 towing miles) 2007 Rockwood 8314SS 34' travel trailer US Govt survey shows three out of four people make up 75% of the total population Joy • View posts Henderson KY 42420 Senior Member Joined: 08/10/2001 View Profile Offline Posted: 03/09/10 08:25pm Link  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator I place those folks in the inconsiderate category but just in case I'm wrong, perhaps you could ask the manager to check with them to see if they are unaware they have left them on and suggest they turn them off?

Biggest suggestion I have, get to know your neighbors and mention it. When I had my first 5er I had flipped the scare light switch on and never noticed it, next day the neighbor at a campground kindly asked if I had left them on for any reason. After that I always checked. I think some units have the side scare lights tied in with the porch light. Nothing wrong with politely asking if they can dim them... that's what a sense of community is all about. If they won't turn them out, ask to see if you can change spots perhaps. Good luck!

Once the folks behind us did it, and next morning I mentioned it to them, and yes. they had forgot to turn it off, and it did not happen again. But yeah. Some are scared of the dark, and really should just stay home.

I wish they hurry up and go!

It is certainly annoying but I think most of the time it is because the miscreants simply forget to turn them off. * This post was edited 03/09/10 10:17pm by chuckster11 * johnbhicks • View posts Cherry Pocket, Fla.
