Solar powered Signs

This is an example of signboards that are solar powered in Singapore.
Not all the signboards are like this. Most are printed on reflective materials.



If only solar power will be cheap enough to power air-conditioning units in our home!

Great to see Singapore go Green.

It makes sense, especially for something small like this.

Interesting. I never saw such signs when I visited my sister in Singapore last August. Nice blog.

Great work. Australia could learn from much of what is happening in Asia right now. Friends recently returned from China tell me that solar is EVERYWHERE with new construction.

A great idea, we have friends in the hills near here who run their home on solar energy. They can even run a welder, and from a full moon they can get 2 watts of power !!
I will try and show you some time.

Solar-powered air conditioning...wouldn't that be something! Frankly, I am impressed with the signs.
I appreciate your visit to Selma, Ala. Daily Photo. In answer to your question, Zaxby's is a fast-food family restaurant primarily featuring chicken dishes such as chicken tenders. But they the usual hamburgers and other things too. You can check them out at www.zaxbys.com.

Solar power is amazing. Is this sign solar powered so that it is lit up at night?

I suspect it could, if you are not too picky about the temp!
