That's what all my Kiwi buddy's say too...No offence but the Australians, are special. Let's leave it at that.

Outside security perimeter lights should definitely be motion sensored but you should still be able to control them by either switching them of totally or some of them have have the abilty to be switched on permanantly when flicking the lightswitch on and of two or three times.

Most houses here in a suburban setup do have security lights installed outside, it doesn`t matter if you have something worth to steal or not, you can get killed over an old cellphone(friends got shot). The choice still remains yours if you want to put up lights or not.I would have thought all these security lights would attract people to that house, with all these lights they must have something worth stealing?? if you have neighbours-lights on all night may just possibly annoy them?? just a thought.
I am from South Africawe have a few houses here which have "night lights" on, but none have security lights, I suppose that is just one difference between US and UK.

I even wired for security lighting when I built the place here, but still have not gotten around to putting then on the house. I have one on the garage mostly so I can see after dark. Guess I need to move that higher on my list.Mine has PIR activated 500 watt security lights out the back as does most of this street, and PIR activated welcome lights out front ?

I think I just came to the realization that my ever evolving list will never get done!
Growing up in hurricane prone areas made me a prepper before I even knew what one was. About ten years ago I took a look around at the state of the world and decided to start making steps to better my odds of surviving the mess I think we are headed for. Making a physical move of 500 miles was pretty radical and hard for me, but put me in a much more sustainable place. No doubt, I'm still learning daily too.you can never be 100% finished in prepping, its a life long job of improvement and evolution, I've been doing this since 1979 and I still consider myself to be very much a novice.
I try to live by this rule. "If i do one thing per day to improve the situation for my loved ones and me for tomorrow, then you have done enough." When you look back you might be amazed at what you have accomplished.Growing up in hurricane prone areas made me a prepper before I even knew what one was.

Then you are the only one who does!! I consider you to be my "mentor" in all things prepping!I've been doing this since 1979 and I still consider myself to be very much a novice.
