Do they do something when you or a car, get close to them?

A motion sensor for detecting possums or other creatures

Valerie · « **Reply #42 on:** June 12, 2016, 01:08:26 PM »

Would you find them at an airport??? Down the runway maybe??? Used for checking if anyone is carrying a gun??

Babs · « **Reply #43 on:** June 12, 2016, 04:49:41 PM »

Burglar alarm

The "man" has put in his two pennyworth, does it float says he. Good question I thought.

Babs · « **Reply #45 on:** June 12, 2016, 07:26:40 PM »

Does it need batteries?

Does it work in the rain?

does it float?
- Would not be placed in water but probably.

Babs is going in the right direction, follow her lead Valerie.

Yes to both Babs...... You are getting there

Yes could do.

Now go back to Reply 33 and 34......... these are still the closest.

Nothing to do with weather equipment, burglar alarms or detecting anything. Especially not guns

Valerie · « **Reply #49 on:** June 13, 2016, 12:42:20 PM »

Right I am at the airport and walking through the arch. Would they be inside and ring loudly when detecting metal??? Inside the conveyor belt where your bags etc are checked??? The runway lights have been mentioned so it cannot be them. I refuse to give up.

Correct but this is more along the right path as so to speak.....

I am thinking sensor lights

Look at those 3 quoted, find the common factor.

Are they for hallway safety exit lights?
I assume they are upside down, and the blue bit is actually a lamp.
So that makes me think they are a means of lighting halls or passages.

Or if they are right way up, then there could be a light/lamp fitting facing the other direction, like catseyes in the road...

All but there Toko.

No to hallway safety exit lights.
No it is not up side down. This is the correct position.

Not cats eyes..... but keep going along this path:

This is hard to me to really give you clues with you guys being so close to the answer.

As I said, I want the exact answer so keep guessing.

Taxiway guide lights to guide planes off the runway?

Valerie · « **Reply #55 on:** June 15, 2016, 01:05:04 PM »

What about the gizmo that opens gates when you drive past or have I gone off the track???

Babs · « **Reply #56 on:** June 15, 2016, 06:17:51 PM »

The do-hinky you swipe your credit card with getting out of the airport car parks

JennyLeez · « **Reply #57 on:** June 15, 2016, 06:30:35 PM »

You are not guessing this mainly as you are not reading the clues. Lets make it easier...........
To repeat reply 50.

What word appears in all three lines?
Forget the airport. They would be used at an airport but this is leading you away from the correct answer.

Now taking the clue above and add reply 30, they would be used at night.

and next clue is they would not be on the ground.

Now go outside and look around but put your jacket on, its cold out there...lol

TokWW · « **Reply #58 on:** June 15, 2016, 09:12:19 PM »

Ok each clue JL has hinted at has light mentioned in it. Not ground mounted lights like runway lights, not hallway lamps mounted vertical on a wall, no lighting at either the other end or the blue end, then one has to presume that the light is at the bottom - where we can't see. Now that makes a bit of sense since there are heat venting holes in the top.

So if the light is facing down, then these must be mounted up high. - She said they were not close to us. New technology may indicate LED lamps as these are very compact and efficient (low current draw for high brightness, and low heat loss due to efficiency too). Hence the use of plastic as well and general small size. Hence used for driveway lights up a pole or something... hmmm miles away from my first thought of trapping animals LOL!
