Are you looking for green or eco friendly gifts to give for the holidays? Every year, we at SolarTown are compiling a list of some gifts that you may want to consider. Take a look at our solar gifts that we are recommending this year in our learning section.The first gift you can give is to educate yourself and your friends about the power of solar energy. My family and I went to the Science Museum in Baltimore over the Thanksgiving weekend. It is easy to forget that the sun is 1.3 million (yes, million) times as large as the Earth. If you open up the sun and dump over a million earths in it, you can begin to imagine that the sun carries a pretty large punch. The challenge is of course how to garner all of that energy. The answer is that we don’t need to garner very much of that energy to meet our energy needs; we just have to do it efficiently.

Monday, August 6th, 2012The summer is coming to an end but you still haven’t bought your solar landscape lights? Every year we see the same trend: our customers purchase their solar powered lights from late spring to the end of summer. Well, it is already light in the summer and you need light in the winter! So now is the time to purchase your solar lamp post lights to lighten your walkways during the winter, solar patio lights to take advantage of our outdoors during the fall or other outdoor solar lights. And all year around you will enjoy solar garden fountains.
Bring on Spring! Bring on the Solar Lights!
Thursday, April 28th, 2011We have had some false starts but the cherry blossoms finally bloomed in the Nation’s Capital and spring has finally arrived, and so has the surge of interest in and orders for solar powered lights. Most of our customers who are interested in solar lights are newbies to solar energy, and indeed there is no better wait to start down the road to solar energy with some solar lights. You don’t need a solar farm to get into the solar business. You can start with some simple, inexpensive solar lights. And springtime has brought the customers to SolarTown who want to see solar technology in action.
