Replacing a sensor in an outside light pole is not as easy as it looks. A good moisture/waterproof sensor will cost around $20. The always on power for the light pole sensor is usually controlled from the garage. My suggestion for an easy fix is: As long as the power is constantly on to the pole, go to Home Depot and buy a "Dusk to Dawn" light bulb (about $7.00)with the sensor built right into the bulb. Your pole light will go "On At Dusk" & "Off At Dawn". Problem solved in 2 minutes.

Hi, Have been coming to The Villages since 2007. In June of 2015 I purchased a home in Polo Ridge and now am a permanent 12 month a year resident. I enjoy dancing and attend multiple dance classes at various Rec. Centers throughout the week. I also enjoy playing golf and I am going to give Pickle Ball a try. It would be really great to find a lady with whom there is some level of mutual attraction that enjoys dancing and playing golf.
