Following on the story about the Solar-Powered Sun Bricks, here comes another interesting and quite similar product… the Solar-Powered Motion-Sensing Light. The motion-sensing 15-watt halogen light is triggered when someone enters its 23-foot sensor range, so it can light the way without staying on all night (the light stays on for 10 seconds to 1 minute, you configure the length). The Solar-Powered Floodlight is powered by a 6V 4Ah lead-acid rechargeable battery, so you won’t need to replace batteries constantly (it has 3 years life), and because of the battery it will even work during power outages and no sun available at all. Aside from the battery, there is a 5″ x 5″ solar panel that recharges the battery during the day.

Installs in Minutes
There’s no electricity needed to power the Solar-Powered Floodlight. With no wires to run, you can install this solar light in minutes.

The Solar-Powered Sun Bricks use solar panels to charge during the day, when the night comes they turn on automatically a LED array to make the place they are put an easier to follow path even in complete darkness.

The best of all is that there are no external power requirements or wires whatsoever, you can’t find a simpler or more inexpensive way to illuminate dark walkways around your home or in your garden. Just replace a few of the standard bricks or pavers with those completely self-contained Sun Bricks.

Flush-to-the-ground, integral solar panels generate up to 8 hours of light each night. So guests can follow a cheerfully illuminated path to your door. Amber LEDs provide a warm, welcoming glow, consume little power, and can’t burn out.

Sun Bricks come on automatically when darkness falls, and incur no operating costs. Just recess them in your walkway, and forget them!

The price for a pair of Sun Bricks is $59.95.
