Found a super awesome solution for the light that exceeded my expectation. It’s a magnetic, motion activated, rechargeable LED cabinet light. Since our mailbox is metal, it stuck perfectly and securely to the top of the mailbox. It has a 2400mah rechargeable battery which they say will last 2-4 weeks when activated 10 times a day. Since this is the mailbox and activated maybe twice a day, I may be able to extend to 2 months. It’s motion activated and works well when opening the mailbox door or putting my hand near the entrance. Super happy with this purchase. Let me know if anyone is interested, I can provide the link.
