Thought some of you would might benefit from this. I really wanted to get my aethers off the ground and I needed one of them to be located right above a bush so I made a stand for them. I removed the original stand, made a U bracket from some scrap aluminum, attached it to a 1/2" end cap with a screw, and mounted it to a 3' stick of 1/2" gray electrical conduit. I did the rebar in the ground and conduit over the rebar trick. This made a dramatic increase in brightness I wanted since the light was placed where exactly it needed to be. Now both of mine are 3' away from the house and 3' from the ground at about 45deg.
And of course my aethers are my new favorite!!! Build was simple, and they perform really well, and that is coming from a guy who uses 1kw par 64s for Halloween. Let me rephrase that, "used to use 1kw par 64's for Halloween"...
Great Job RJ.
