suggestions for controller needed [RE-wrenches]

[Scott Carlson]

Hi Todd,

The Trace C-12 or if you plan to use a motion sensor then what about the Sun
Saver -6.   I used these at San Onofre State beach and
they seem to do well for me with motion sensors with the built in light
sensor.   I believe I used the 12 volt 34600 Sunelco sensors.  I have
noticed about a 5 percent failure out
of the box  with the Sun Savers though and it has to do with the load side
not passing current inside
the controller when amps exceeded approx. 1.
