How it works

No Trenching, No Wiring, No Grid, No Problem.

Conventional outdoor lighting starts below ground — and that's where the cost, delay, and risk start too. FLT skips all of it.

1. Spec your site.

Choose the right fixture for your application; we help you get the layout right.

2. Bolt it down.

One person, under 30 minutes, no electrician and no electrical permit.

3. It runs itself.

Every unit charges by day and lights by night, automatically — for decades.

Installs in under 30 minutes

A single person can deploy a unit start to finish, which takes electrical delays off your critical path.

Captures and converts more energy, even in partial shade

Full-surface FLT Active Cell™ panels capture more usable sunlight than standard cells, while FLT ChargeLogic™ converts it efficiently even in shade, cold or low light.

Runs on 2-3 hours of sunlight

Up to 21 days of autonomy without a full charge, compared with the 3–5 days typical of other solar lighting.

Lights itself, dusk to dawn, automatically

FLT Adaptive Intelligence™ manages astronomical lighting profiles and output automatically — with app control and motion sensing available on select fixtures.

Hardwired vs Solar

Compare how our solar technology outperforms hardwired lighting

Factor

Copper wire vulnerability

Lifetime ROI

Speed of installation

Grid dependency

Hardwired

Copper wiring is exposed and theft-prone

Higher lifecycle costs from trenching and utilities

Slower install with trenching and electrical work

Vulnerable to blackouts and brownouts

Solar

No copper wire to steal

Lower lifecycle costs with no utility bills

Faster install with minimal site disruption

Operates independently of the grid

“This solar lighting is better than the electric lighting we had in place before”
