Solar LED Address Sign – Waterproof House Number Plaque, Customizable Numbers & Letters, Auto Dusk-to-Dawn Light, 8.1 x 6.9 Inches

Excellent product overall. Easy installation, good battery life, and the waterproof design gives peace of mind. Highly recommended for any home.

I�ve tried other solar signs before but this one is much brighter and better built. The customization options are also very easy to use.

The warm LED lighting gives the sign a premium look at night. It adds a really nice touch to the exterior of our home.

Since installing this sign, we�ve had no issues with missed deliveries. It�s bright, readable, and charges quickly in sunlight.

The Infinite Basics Solar LED Address Sign has some good and bad features. My first issue is that there are no instructions. As near as I can tell, the user is supposed to just stick the numbers to the surface of the address sign. I assumed there must be some inner cover, so I took the back off to see what I was missing. However, what you see is what you get. You stick the numbers directly to the surface and assume the weather will not degrade them over time.

It would be helpful if there was some guide to help place the numbers. Being a perfectionist (or OCD), I cut a thin piece of cardboard that was the same size as surface where the address goes. I drew a baseline about a half inch or so from the bottom. I trimmed around each adhesive number with scissors and placed the numbers on the cardboard so I could decide on proper spacing. I then marked an outline where I would place each number, and then cut out that outline for each number using a razor knife. I then taped that template to the surface of the light, and then one-by-one removed the adhesive from each number and stuck it to the surface. I removed my template and it looked pretty good. I was able to peel off one number that was leaning drunkenly to one side and reaffix it, and it still seems to be stuck on pretty well. Larger numbers would have been better, but they are trying to make sure the address sign accommodates as many digits as it can while still being readable. 

Once I had the numbers in place, I was still concerned about the rain and snow degrading the adhesive numbers, so I decided to make a cover. When I removed the back, I discovered that in addition to the back cover there are two “nested” front sections. I had a box of transparency film sheets from back in the days when teachers used overhead projectors, so I trimmed a sheet to create a cover to protect my numbers. I inserted the plastic sheet between the two front pieces, protecting the numbers from the weather. I have doubts about how well it will work, but it’s bound to be better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. 

I do not know why they do not include a template for accurately placing the mounting screws. None is provided, so you’re on your own. If you removed the back plate, it’s easy enough to trace around it and mark the holes on a sheet of paper, but I’m guessing most buyers will not be disassembling the address sign. 

Another review noted that it comes in one color – white! I’m guessing the surface is paintable, since it is made of ABS plastic and a search indicates that ABS plastic can be painted if you apply a thin coat of plastic primer and use acrylic, lacquer, or automotive paint. You could separate the layers and paint the outermost layer of the cover if desired.

This is a nice-looking solar LED address sign, even in white. It was a significant undertaking to get the numbers on and get it mounted out front, but much of that could be attributed to my pickiness. I like it, but I spent a lot more time “templating” than I should have. Infinite Basics could have provided templates to help buyers avoid all that, but I think this item is still a 5 star.
