If you're going to get upset about this.. you know where you can go.. (as a former boss said.. tell em to go pound sand) :-) yes, I turn them off at night after we go to bed.

Thanks for the tip!

I think it looks good.

I mounted a 7-pin receiver next to the tongue jack. The TT 7-pin is stored there to keep it from dragging the ground. Little sealed push button switch can connect The top pins to turn on the lights.

Ask anyone who has busted their head open on an awning support, cracked a knee on the tongue or tripped over the sewer hose if those lights are a good idea. And, at least around here the possums and armadillos stay away from light.

This is our nite lighting. Yup, still using the good old Coleman lantern. Usually the outside trailer light isn't on. In the trucking world, leaving your running lights on means that you are looking for some paid company!

Never had any offers (yet).. maybe it's the 4 kids and a wife that scares them away.

Might have to steal that idea...

Outside lights should be turned off during quiet hours.

Why some need to be lit up like Xmas, I don't know, but it would be nice if they shut them off at quiet time till the next night!
