don't have a external flag pole.  But do have one that sits in our window visible from the street.  Have three neighbors that have 15-20 foot flag poles flying Old Glory 24/7.  Good neighborhood.

I am out in the country, mine flies 24/7 out front the house 20 yrds. mounted on a corner post 15ft high and has a light on it all night from the yard light on a power pole.  I live 500 ft. off the road and the drive way is clear shot to the flag and looks real good at night.

I fly the Flag from the street light in front of my apt.

Right now it's the Star spangled Banner flag.. Ft. McHenry and Francis Scott Key.

Fifteen stars , eight red stripes and seven white.

Interesting, thx. I'm sure I'd read that there's actually no requirement to have a flag lit at night, but your link says otherwise unless I missed something.

Every day, since 9/11/01...  lit at night with a LED dusk to dawn replacement ball, on the top of the pole.  My next door neighbor does the same  cooldude

This thread made me curious, so I took a ride around my rather large neighborhood (Good excuse to putter around on the Helix... That thing is more fun than it should be!) looking for flags...

First, I briefly flew a flag in the days after 9/11, but have since not done so. My current house isn't really ideal for it (I've got a weird thing where the street is several feet above my front yard, you go down stairs to get to my house from the street, it's kinda weird and would make a flag pole very awkward)

Around my neighborhood I observed, in my very unscientific observation:

0 normal American Flags
4 Texas Flags
2 Gonzales Flags (I.E. Come and Take It)
2 of the "Thin Blue Line" American flags

One of the Gonzales was under a Texas flag, the other was flying solo. The other flags were solo.
