For Sale: Night Watchman Anchor Light Sensor

[osirissail]

Night Watchman - Daylight sensor switch - $15.00 + postage

As a cruising sailor I often found that I was often thinking more about getting underway in the morning than turning the mast head anchor light OFF. This of course used a substantial amount of battery power lighting the lamp all day. The Night Watchman is designed to be mounted outside in a marine salt air environment. It is completely waterproof, and very small (1" x 1" x 1") for mounting in an inconspicuous location.Because power consumption is always a concern on battery powered systems, (sail boats, PV systems, etc.) the Night Watchman is designed to use an extremely small amount of power in standby mode (only 0.00015A or 0.15mA), yet it is capable of supplying up to 10A of load current.

With boring repetition the Night Watchman will turn 12V incandescent, LED or fluorescent lights ON in the evening within a half hour of sunset, and OFF in the morning within a half hour of sun rise.

The Night Watchman's circuitry is designed to prevent flickering therefore it can be used to control 12V fluorescent lamps and all other lamp types including LEDs.

** Explanation or what we are listing ***
I have failed to mention enough times that ALL of the stuff we are listing is from our boat and has been collected over the years when I could sail and cruise. My terminal cancer has ended all of that so we are trying to find a good home for the stuff. Since quite a bit of it is "old" and no longer available or made, we thought cruisers might be interested - especially if you had one and now would like to replace your broken one with an exact or near duplicate which is not longer available.
