Sounds GREAT, Jim. Thanks!

What's the problem running 24/7? It uses less power than a flashlight.

Best
calculation shows running 24/7 to be less than $0.50 a year in power bill.



The problem is that the array will be visible from the pilot's lounge area.
This area becomes rather populated with pilots, on occasion, and I doubt
they'll want to have a string of strobes winking in their peripheral vision
for hours on end.

A directionally-oriented motion sensor, with an automatic shut-off after a
minute or two, would be best, methinks.
