SOLAR-POWERED SUN BRICK

by Evelyn Lee

Sun Brick

Spice up your patio or walkway this fall with Sun Bricks, the solar-powered ground lighting system that will guide people to your front door with their inviting glow. These flush-to-ground patio pavers are composed of LEDs powered entirely by the sun - meaning no burn-outs, bulb replacement or extra charges to those ever-increasing energy bills. No external wires makes installation a snap - just swap out existing pavers with Sun Bricks. One day of charge provides each Sun Brick with eight hours of amber-colored illumination, just long enough to get all of your visitors in and out of the house. Sun Bricks are an inspirational idea for the holiday seasons, what with all the expected (and unexpected) guests.

$59 for a pair

I am also curious what size these things are. They don’t necessarily look like standard bricks…

It would be good to have more details about how they work, and to see if they can be used for other than lighting paths or as paved in paths.

They look more like they’re really meant to be embedded in paths, what with the block-like design.

What a great idea, it really helps set a back yard path apart from the typical stone with cheesy plastic path lights. Now, if only I had a path to light…oh well, a small disadvantage of living in a city.

How long will the light emission last? many of these last only a couple of weeks.

Are these strong enough to take the weight of a car, I want to know if they can be used to delineate car parking bays.
thanks

I am not sure if these bricks are water proof but I know the ones I saw on ww. wwwcreativesolutions.com are waterproof and can hold a weight of a car

I purchased a set of these and are happy with them so far. I will post an update if I have any problems. http://www.outdora.com/ had the best price. At their site do a search for Solar Walkway Brick Lights. I got 2 for 45.62 with Free shipping and handling (7/07). If you are looking for 20 or more I saw them at http://www.comforthouse.com/bricklight.html for a better price. I don’t have any experience with comforthouse. However, I can say Outdora shipped quickly and I had no problems with them.

They are made by Smart Solar.
