No More wiring With Solar Deck Lights
When you put in a new deck or patio you need to install lighting not only for safety but also to add some beauty to the deck area. You can install a low voltage system, but if you don’t want to run electric wires and want to save on your electricity bill solar lights provide the right solution.
Solar deck lights are easy to setup and provide automatic illumination from dusk to dawn.
Our condo building is southern exposure with full sun light. We are in Boston and have a large roof deck, over 2.000 sq. ft. we have some hard one hard wired electrical light near the door and the two steps. The roof deck gets a great deal of light from the city buildings and very few people use the deck after dusk.
However, we want to ensure the safety of the few who do, but would like to save energy, labor and expense and go green.
One idea was to install floor lightening on the deck using 23 low voltage lights. This requires wiring and since the deck is fully exposed to the elements a concern about water damage, costs and durability.
Please share ideas also we don’t want to attrack bugs, but the
We would like to be able to manually turn the solar lights off.
Safety, ambiance and durability and costs and being environmentally sensitive are our main concerns.
Thanks,
