Photovoltaic powered landscape lighting

[Kevin Karl Gainer]

Gregg,

You might take a look in the "Thomas Register of Manufacturers" (any good
library). There's a highly detailed index which may include an entry for PV
powered outdoor lighting.

Hi Gregg,

While they dont manufacture lighting per se...they are a good source for PV
power supplys for anything, and they do have lighting. Get a hold of
Megan McConville
Solar Electric Specialties Co
1-800-635 7497 or 805 963 9667

My theory being your better off having a good power supply and using high
quality 12 volt landscape fixtures....
