Editor's Notes
July 14, 2019:
A solar-powered sign is an affordable, energy-efficient way to make sure the address of your home or business is displayed clearly at night. Being able to identify your address is important not only for visitors and delivery persons, but in the event emergency responders are called to the site. Like solar spotlights and solar tiki torches, these handy, light-up signs contain panels that soak up the Sun during the day and, in turn, shine for many hours after dark.
Joining the list in this update is the LeiDrail LED, a durable, waterproof selection made of metal and plastic that will hold up well to the elements. It works with a rechargeable battery and six bright white LEDs, and will shine for up to eight hours at night if it’s been fully charged prior. This reliable selection charges well even in partial sunlight, so you can rest assured it will do its job come sundown. You can buy it with confidence, thanks to the available full refund within 30 days of purchase, and the 12-month guarantee.
Another new addition is the Zuozuoya Plaque, which is also illuminated by six LEDs and comes in a waterproof design. It’s made from tough aluminum and stainless steel, with a powder coating, and comes with five sets of numbers, so you have everything you need to affix an address of up to five digits. The manufacturer provides 24-hour customer service and a 90-day moneyback guarantee.
Leaving the list today are the Collections Etc. Solar Marker Stake and the Emerson Lighted Address Stake, due to issues with availability.
