Solar power ?

[Chris H. 0]

I am building a 4ftx6ft double side light box sign for a customer. I bought the kit that we first talked about which came with 4 6ft flurecent light and a single ballast. Now the custom want me to try and solar power the sign. Has anyone done this or can point me to the right person to talk to.

Thanks

Solar lighting is usually Low-wattage -low-intensity LED's.

What you are describing is a massive amount of power requirements (4 bulbs rated at probably 70 watts each?) -- and what about the VOLTAGE required for that ballast to fire up the lamps?

Doesn't sound reasonable for a customer to change the specs of his sign order, to something not regular electrical-grid-powered, especially since you've ordered all those materials already.

Google is your friend, in any case, if you want to go along the route of altering the entire project.
