After looking at several ways to light a sign here are my thoughts on the different products available to light a sign.
ListingLight.com provides a solution that uses 6 C batteries rather than using solar power. 8 LEDS
Price: $65.00
I found this to be the brightest solution and provides the best even lighting.
14 LED lightsSleek and lightweight design
Price: $45.00
I like the fact that it is solar and does not require batteries but I found it to present a dim uneven light. More info can be found at Sunpal.com.
Single LEDPrice: $64.90
This one created a single hot spot on the sign and I actually had one stolen as they were not very secure. Sanzo Specialties carry these.
After trying each of theses I will probably stick with the battery powered one till solar improves. Have you tried any lighted signs?

Hi Gregg,
Thanks for sharing. So, if you go with the batteries, how often do you feel you may be changing batteries?
We've been using Solar Advantage and company based in Yorba Linda. They also install a somewhat large post (very clean and nice looking) with a solar strip across the top. It illuminates both sides of the sign. Not really bright, however you can definitely tell it's a for sale sign. So far, we've had nothing but very positive feedback from clients.
I've even had neighbors standing in the drive way of listings when it's first installed!
Take care,
Lynda
We change batteries about every 6 weeks.
How much does Solar Advantage charge?
