Dave,

That light thing sounds great! Could your light be interfaced with a generator for extended use? If so one would not have to have a spire light for tours without standard house socket or some other electrical source.

Later, Randall

One small thing I can add to this, as far as lighting goes. It may not = be necessary to have a generator any longer with current technology. I = have been working with a friend making a super bright LED light that is = self contained, no bottle battery. Recharges by plugging the whole = light into a standard house socket and burns at 40 watts for 2.5 hours. = Lower power settings increase burn time drastically. The whole unit is = 5'' long and 3.5 inches wide. One Accessory battery packs which plug = into the back of the unit like a cell phone could increase burn time to = 24 hours. With this kind of longevity I don't see the point of a = generator style light, although I still think they are cool. Only other = problem like most of my ideas is that the technology is expensive but = hey good stuff costs. If people are interested in such an item I will = get some pictures out soon. =20
