    Driveway - Stone & Concrete Combo

    I'm assuming by stone driveway, your talking about large pieces of flat stone in varied dimensions. I prefer to see the stone drive with concrete edging. I gives the whole area visual dimension and does help with drainage. It also allows you to repair it easily without notice. A concrete cracked...

    Brick Driveway.

    Yes, I can split the load with two switches. Thanks for the added information. FYI. This set up is for an upcoming community ghost tour that will be lighting up above a corn field. Sporadic on and Off power every 5 minutes with flickering bulbs. A lot of extension cords involved. Think...

    Wireless Issues. Horse of a different color.

    Now that's possible. My speakers located on the same side of the house as my service connections have a stronger louder beat. I will take a speaker right to it and see how strong it is.
