Portfolio being such a commonly used term, searching has been a BIG challenge. You also do not provide a product name or model # for more information, which would have been helpful.

This is a brand carried by Lowe's Home Improvement stores, but I was not able to get a link to the manufacturer, and I can't tell if it's a Lowe's store brand. If this is where the item was purchased, your best bet would be to contact Lowe's directly.
Good Luck!

I have a neighbor that turns on a very bright outdoor light, it is very intrusive
Call your local municipality and speak to the department that handles ordinances. Our township has a "candle light" law, which means that any light on your property cannot project light onto another property which is more than that of a candle placed on the property line.
I have a neighbor who insists upon using a floodlight that shines directly into my home. It lights up my backyard like daylight. I have asked him nicely three times to remove it and replace it with solar lights or find another alternative but have beenmet with resistance. I am hoping there is a law to regulate this.
There is no ordinance in town yet. The zoning officer is aware of the situation. If there is a PA law regarding it, I should be able to hold him to that. BTW- I also gave him a $20 gift card to Lowes and some flashlights to make it easier for him to remedy. I figure my next steps would be legal action or a fence.
O.K...having dealt with multiple cities regarding exterior lighting, every city I have dealt with, with very few exceptions, has a "lighting trespass" ordinance. Essentially, there is a maximum level of light, measured in footcandles, that is allowed to spill over a property line. In every case I have dealt with, light trespass has pertained to commercial properties, but the ordinances do not distinguish between commercial and residential. If you live in a major area, there is a high likelihood that your city has a light trespass ordinance. If so, you can file a grievance with the city and they have to respond. You can use a light meter that measures footcandles, and most ordinances only allow 0.25fc at the property line. If you can't rent a meter, then you may have to find an electrician that has one. Considering that full moonlight is around 1fc, this gives you a good point of reference as to how much is being spilled over. You last recourse is a civil suit, where you best chance of winning is if you can prove that your neighbor's light is actually aimed at your property. Otherwise, it is overspill and you might still have a good case.
Get on your city's website, look up codes and ordinances, then find the lighting ordinances. You can also call city hall and ask for a code enforcement official. He or she will tell you what lighting ordinances the city has adopted. Ask him specifically about light trespass requirements, what the maximum trespass level is (in footcandles), and if they apply to residential.

My parents have conflicting views and I just want to see what the majority of you think.
Please.
Like most things. In moderation they look fine and delight children and adults alike.
Massively over-done gawdy displays of extreme naff-ness seems just a bit to yucky for me - BUT if the homeowner / neighbours like that sort of thing, who am I to spoil their fun.
Each to their own.
I have a regent outdoor light in my backyard. You know, one of those lights that looks like a street light, but it's a residential light.
Anyway, the bulbs appears to have blown. So, I bought a replacement. And now, the light will not come on.
Is there a certain type of bulb I should be using? Because the bulb that bought looks exactly like the one I took out. So, in my mind, I thought that it was the correct bulb.
What am I doing wrong?
The bulb that I use is a mercury vapor bulb.
My only concern is that may there are different types for different light fixtures.
The bulb that I took out has nothing on it for me to compare to. So, I just looked at the shape of the bulb and figured that I would replace it, based upon how the bulb looked.
And now, the light doesn't come on.
Is there any way that I can find out, for certain, why type of bulb I need? Or what type of ballastic I need for the lighting fixure?
If the bulb you took out is a mercury vapor then you have to be sure you replace it with the same type and wattage. Some bulbs are very similar but won't work. If replacing it with the right bulb doesn't work, the problem could be the ballast. If that's the case get an electrician.

Tips for Residential Outdoor Lighting
Most of us now recognize both the need and charm of residential outdoor lighting. Attempting to light the outdoors portion of your home however is different from indoor or commercial lighting. Here are some things that you need to remember if you decide to install outdoor lighting for your home.
Make a Plan
There are two ways of planning your residential outdoor lighting. Some recommend that you finish everything first before planning for lights while others say that you should plan the placement of your outdoor lights even before your outdoor structures and landscapes are completed. Either way would work and your plans will depend on your preference.
If you go for planning after the work is done, make sure you take the time to assess and evaluate your property properly to find out which areas need lighting. Look for pathways, potentially dark areas, steps, ledges and objects that may have to be lighted to prevent accidents. You could also try to locate items that you would like to be highlighted for decorative purposes.
