Switch off all the other lights and the street lights would not be too bad.
Street lights are Sodium "Yellow Dwarfs" in a galaxy of Neon "Main Sequence".

mia, you can try picking my brains, but please post on the board here as there are a couple of people with more knowledge of the technical details of the lighting industry here. I can get some folks from the BAA to look at the details if they are too technical.
Thanks Albert, I will post on here when and if necessary. I was talking to them last night and they said they would be turned off at 8pm so hopefully all will be okay.
Just a wee story re LP!
On the road into Downpatrick there is quite a large house with the wind turbine in the garden, great stuff, doing their bit to conserve energy!
The thing is, at night, the house is lit up like a Christmas tree!!! Huge flood lights! It looks like a runway! I'm tempted to knock on their door and smack them and shout 'IDIOT!'........but I won't.........well...not yet anyway!

It'll never happen here Albert, our government is only interested in throwing money away, i.e. tribunals, rather than saving it.
I bet there were people saying that in Slovenia too.
Anyway excellent news.
Have written to John Gormey on this as well.

I'd rather not argue with Andrej though, hes a very determined personality shall we say
And its taken him and IDA Solvenia 10 years to get this far, even with the best experts in europe helping.
