LOL that's awesome! I think the arms should have been shorter though. That way the light doesn't "pull" on the pole as much (the longer arm makes the light heavier in reference to the pole). that's why i had to put the shorter arm on the pole in my backyard since the 4ft arm made the lights too heavy. Plus with such a short pole the long arm makes the set up look a little bit out of proportion. I think at that mounting height a smaller sized fixture would have probably been sufficient too lol.
Yeah the longer the arm is the bigger the concrete foundation (if it's an anchor base pole) and the thicker the pole has to be. Here out signals are on like 20-30ft masts but the poles are thicker than a utility pole and the foundations are about 2ft X 2ft compared to the 1ft X 1ft founation that a street light pole here uses.
[Brings ladder] "uh.. uh.. aw s*** the ladder's a couple inches too short! Son-of-a-gun!" [goes to local home improvememt sore and buys a few garening bricks to raise up the ladder]
[says from 21 feet up in the air:] "wait, the light's all the way down there...!"
[parks a pick-up under the light with an old mattress in the bed and unbolts the pole, cuts the wires, removes light, zipties an IUO to the end of the mast arm, and reinstalls the pole. drives away recklessly]
