Our flag pole

Carol and I are both proud flag waving americans. We came up with an idea of buying a couple of solar powerd yard spot lights at a local hardware store. We then drilled holes in the bases and run zip ties through them to attach the lights to the bottom of our flag pole. The solar powerd lights are charged up during the day and even when we are boon docking, the lights provide ample lighting for the flag at night. Check this out in our video. Keep in mind, our camera doesn't do real well in low light situations, so it may not look very bright.

Our Flag pole setup

The batteries in the solar powered lights, will easily run the lights for 14 hours so that the flag is lit up all night.

We are so looking forward to using this set up when we boon dock with a bunch of other flag waving americans while we boon dock at Quartzsite Arizona in January of 2013.

Happy camping!

There are definitely a lot of flags flying in Q or at rally's. Your set up looks like it's going to work really great.
