Cat's eye pathway markers
SolarEye LED cat’s eye lights create highly visible delineation along walking or cycling paths for general route marking and way-finding.
With their low profile, in-set design, SolarEye cat’s eyes provide a steady or slow flashing, omni-directional light with 360° visibility. The LED luminary effect adds high-visibility lighting to outdoor corridors, walkways, decks, marina docks, swimming pool edges and bike paths. And unlike smaller deck or dock lights, these solar-powered lights can provide continuous nighttime light for up to 14 days without sunlight.
While fully sealed and constructed of high-impact, durable, engineering-grade polymer, SolarEye lights are not designed for general highway use. Instead, these pathway lights should only be used in areas meant for pedestrians, micromobility devices and light vehicular traffic.
Can work for up to 14 days without daylight. Batteries last for up to 8 years and can be disabled when not in use. Light sensitive auto on/off for economical operation. Full operational night time performance (200+ hours non-stop signal - without further exposure to daylight).
Long life single LED providing 360° visibility. Steady or slow flash (1 second on/1 second off). Standard white light or special colors to order: Yellow, Green, Blue & Red. High visibility - can be seen up to 1600’ away.
SolarEye is built to withstand not just constant wear and tear from pedestrians and cyclists, but to withstand extremes of temperatures, drenching rain, ice and snow.
Constructed with high impact durable engineering grade polycarbonate. 100% waterproof.
Easy for cyclists / vehicles to move over. Low profile— only ¼” nom. above pathway surface when installed. Textured upper surface provides skid resistance and increased light capture from acute angles.
Use an 3 ¼” rotary hammer miller/cutter to dry cut the hole to a depth of 1 ¼” then fix the Solareye into place using a structural 2 component all weather adhesive.
SolarEye can be installed in compacted stone or gravel pathways, but since they could be easily removed, this is not advisable on public pathways.
Indeed! SolarEye is completely sealed/waterproof and rated as IP68 – the highest IP rating available for dust and water immersion. Even submerges in several inches of water, the unit will still charge (although it may take longer than if left out in direct sunlight).
SolarEye can be installed vertically e.g. on fence panels, as long as the units receive some direct sunlight. The dimpled surface helps to capture more light.
