can't find you on FB. Can you give me a link. I looked for gardenfork tv.

@naanaa1111 sorry, if you search for Gardenfork on Facebook without the TV part, we should show up, have to see if i can fix that one. thx, eric.

If you do this and use an outlet that is sunk in the wall inside, how would you handle that situation?

@naanaa1111 that one is a little harder, you'd have to be able to fish the new power line from the existing outlet up the inside of the wall to the hole where the motion sensor light will be installed. thx, eric.

I called an electrician and he wanted close to $250 to install a motion sensor light at my house. I found your video and it gave me the confidence to try it myself. I spent $52 for parts and installed the light per your instructions. All went well and the light works great. Thank you.

@986321234J glad we could help! i work in the trades, so the $ quoted is a fair price for an electrician. the weatherproof box is important, good that you did that. thx, eric.

yeah, like the dogs were definately doing their part for sure, by barking and running and slobbering and all. : D

@986321234J One more thing, the light is under the eaves of my house and should never get wet. Nevertheless, I used a weatherproof junction box and calked it pretty well.
