Santas on lamposts

I'm passing on the Santa. Don't want it to keep turning on and off every 20 seconds like our Dough Boy did and make people think Santa is haunted! http://www.4smileys.com/smileys/scar...ied_smiley.gif

Why does your lampost go off and on? Do you have a faulty light sensor?

No I don't have a faulty sensor. You must have missed the thread from before Halloween where I had discussed this. You can read my posts if you go to the following thread and read posts #4 & 15. :laugh:

I have a snowman head for my lightpost which I got from Improvements catalog....I didn't know they carried those at the Party Store. I would have gotten it there.

Before buying one from the Part Store, estimate the size of your lamp housing. Turns out mine was too large and the Santa wouldn't fit around it. If you can't tell the size, maybe see if a neighbor's Santa will fit.

Went to the party store but they only had snowmen left. Can't believe they charge $45 for a cheap piece of plastic with decals you had to put on!!! Any other suggestions?

This happened to my light the 1st time I put Santa up.. I realized it was from the reflection of the light so I put a strip of duct tape around the post at the sensor .. problem solved..

Long life cfl light bulb on post and has been running for 5 years even with it on for about 30 days every December!
