Solar panels? Last I checked, these didn't require much power. However, with that many AP's it'd be pretty damn expensive. Perhaps they could set the banks to run a low enough voltage that it wouldn't turn on the actual lights?
Interesting idea. Or what about sending some sort of signal down the line that the AP can use to create power without effecting the lights operation at all.
