Colston Memorial Park

Jeffersonville, IN

The City of Jeffersonville, Indiana, chose FLT's SCL2 solar luminaires and PLB solar bollards to illuminate Colston Memorial Park — the sacred final resting place of U.S. military veterans who fought in the Revolutionary War, Civil War, War of 1812, and the Mexican-American War. Trenching and traditional wiring were simply not an option. FLT's solar lighting allowed the city to illuminate the park beautifully and respectfully, saving substantial taxpayer money while protecting the grounds that honor those who served.

Ridge Lane

San Francisco, CA

This community project, located along Ridge Lane in Ingleside, San Francisco, features a beautifully-functional new staircase and walkway connecting Caine to San Miguel. Using a design created by students of San Francisco's Academy of Art University, landscape architect Nahai Sobati and landscape designer Eric Arneson chose FLT's PLB solar bollards for this project due to their cost-effectiveness and the design freedom they offer. The path's rocky terrain would've made trenching and wiring an expensive logistical nightmare.

Capp Smith Park

Watauga, TX

Capp Smith Park, located in Watauga, Texas, features a 1.2-mile pathway surrounding a lake filled with nine natural springs within the confines of the lake area. One hundred FLT SCL2 solar luminaires illuminate Capp Smith Park's long pathway, playground, and parking lots, improving accessibility and safety after the sun goes down. The SCL2 lights replaced over 200 wired bollards around the park and saved the City of Watauga thousands of dollars by avoiding rewiring and taking full advantage of solar lighting's flexibility.

Willis Point

Willis Point, BC

Willis Point, located on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, is a small rural community on the edge of the Pacific Ocean and is surrounded by many hiking and biking trails. A SCL2 solar luminaire is an important addition to a once dark water cistern area where the volunteer fire crews previously relied on fire engine lighting to get their tanks filled up. With ample, quality illumination, fire crews can now safely and efficiently fill their tanks and be ready for the next call.

San Tan Heights

San Tan Valley, AZ

San Tan Heights is a new residential community in a tranquil desert setting, developed by Pulte Homes on a tight 30-day construction timeline. With utility coordination and plan reviews threatening to derail the schedule, FLT's solar street lighting was the only viable path forward, eliminating the need for trenching, permits and utility hookups entirely. "In order to maintain our project schedule, solar was our only viable option. From my perspective and our overall operations team, it was a win-win." -Pulte Homes

Central West Basin Linear Park

Miami, FL

The area that is now the Central West Basin Linear Park was previously a severely underused tract of land in Miami-Dade county, Florida. This park now boasts a 1.5 mile asphalt multi-use path with native plant landscaping and is lit entirely with solar lighting. The SCL2 solar luminaire was installed exclusively for the pathway. The ease of installation and reliability made it an easy choice for the city. Now, residents can enjoy the green space with added safety and security in the evening.

African Union Church Cemetery

Delaware City, DE

The Friends of the African Union Cemetery installed nine FLT Classic Round Series WLB solar bollards to replace existing and failing lights. The WLB was chosen as it provides a fitting soft glow over the cemetery and plaza in the evening, as well as adding security to this historical site. "They are stunning! Our chairperson and two of us walked out to the cemetery after dark shortly after they were installed. They were everything we'd hoped for."

Waikiki Aquarium

Honolulu, HI

PLB solar bollards were chosen to replace bulky outdated wired incandescent lamps installed in the 1980s. The wiring in both the fixtures and the ground was corroded and had reached the end of its service life, making replacement tricky. Through our partners Solarcology Solar Bollards and Goldwings Supply Service, one of FLT's PLB solar bollards were installed. The result was a much more open and less congested entrance to the aquarium. The solar bollards were painted an ocean blue to match the rest of the aquarium's existing lights and shielding was installed to meet any future lighting ordinances and to ensure there was no light pollution as they are installed next to the ocean.

Oregon Park West

Oregon, IL

24 Classic Round Series PLB solar bollards were installed along pathways in Oregon Park West, giving local park users better access during the evening and winter. Using solar saved time and money by not requiring any digging or trenching to set up the bollards. "The install was really easy - all we had to do was drill a couple holes and mount the lights."

Highland Park

Visalia, CA

The SCL2 solar luminaires installed in Highland Park are a testament to customers knowing and trusting our lights. When the landscape architect needed lighting for the horseshoe and cornhole boxes, he knew our solar lights would be up to the job. "Everyone is really happy with the results." It only took two SCL2 Series lights to illuminate the park's play courts fully.

Posse Grounds Park

Sedona, AZ

Several pathways and a parking lot needed to be illuminated for community accessibility in the evenings, with local lighting ordinances a concern for the area. The City of Sedona had previously worked with FLT on several projects. For this park, they installed both the PLB solar bollard for the pathways and the SCL2 luminaire for the parking lot. They chose amber LEDs to respect the Dark Sky policies of nearby Flagstaff. "The feedback from the community has been positive and has been a well received addition to the park."

Desert Willow Golf Course

Palm Desert, CA

The city decided to replace their wired lighting when more lighting was needed, wanting to avoid any digging or large installation costs. Our Classic Round Series WLB solar bollard was chosen to add a softer light along various pathways at night "We are very happy overall with the job. In my opinion, these lights exceeded my expectations for being solar."
