Let There Be Light

This week, I recycled some old Malibu lights, using new LEDs instead of the old incandescent and halogen bulbs. Naturally, they operate at much cooler temperatures. The timer uses a photocell that switches the lights on at dusk.

I also discovered a significant heat buildup inside when this current heat wave started. I cut a hole in the north wall next to the apex of the roof, and installed a register to exhaust the hot air. Then, I changed the cooler speed to "high."
The Temple now runs 25 degrees cooler than outside!!!
 
On September 28th, 2018 I added 2 blue floodlights to the underside of the roof. This adds a very dramatic effect to the Temple.
