Default You can buy a water proof spot light fixture for

less tha $10....you can also but a very good outdoor timer/dusk to dawn controller for $10.....the all weather bulbs run about $7, but two and ALWAYS have one for replacement.
I don't know how much the liberty light is, the above is too easy to do and does the job reliably.
A couple of flags per year....a couple of bulbs per year...very inexpensive to keep Old Glory flying.
The stitched outdoor all weather flags are the best. They last at least 6 months...I replace mine twice per year and always have bright colors waving.

The printed or dyed flags are cheaper...don't last as long and don't fly as well.

To each his/her own, but keep her flying.....
