Matterinc Solar-Powered LED Numbers For Your Crib


Posted by Jared Hislop Categories: Design, Household, Misc. Tech

Description

We have all been there when driving to an unknown home late at night. Most house numbers are hard to see in the dark.  Matterinc has set out to change that with new solar LED address numbers.  Each number is laser cut out of anodized aluminum.  The solar arrays on top of each number provide power to the included batteries, and two white LEDs shine in the darkess, lighting the number below. On a full solar charge, the LEDs provide eight to ten hours of light - enough to last a full night just about anywhere.  Matterinc recommends placing the device in full sunlight for best results.  The numbers are available in either black or silver, and are viewable up to 40 feet away. They retail for $17.99 USD and come with all of the necessary hardware for mounting.

You should include that they cost $17.99 USD EACH, meaning each number.  From reading your “article” I thought it costs $17.99 for the set, I was ready to order when it’s $17.99 for EACH number.

Heck, I’d order them even at $17.99 each, if I had a house instead of an apartment! :D What a great way to differentiate your house from others; “So you take a right on Deadman’s Drive, a left on Batman Lane, and it’s the third house on the left with BIG GLOWING NUMBERS!”

Hehe!

(also, it would be awesome to live on “Batman Lane” or “Deadman’s Drive”)
