There's nothing like a home on the water. Whether it's a lake, along the river, or even on the ocean shore, the ready access to recreation, the fantastic view, even the calming sounds of the water itself make the experience impossible to duplicate anywhere else. Of course, the trick is managing the practical aspects of a waterfront home without sacrificing the aesthetics – or your sanity. For example, if you have a dock, you've had to learn some hard lessons about maintaining and protecting the wood while navigating whatever state or local regulations happen to apply in your area. Or you may have discovered that your little stretch of shore acts as a natural magnet for all sorts of miscellaneous debris or weird-looking algae – which somehow never troubles the house next door. Most of all, while it's nice having company over or hosting small events, you always have liability in the back of your mind. Every group, however small, seems to have at least one person convinced they're a natural skipper or a professional stunt diver. While you try not to be rude, you have a better perspective on what's a good idea and what's not. Solar Light Up Buoys: Clear Colorful Communication There's simply no substitute for proper maintenance, good habits, and clear rules. That doesn't mean, however, that the results have to be complicated or unattractive. It's possible to highlight, delineate, or prohibit clearly and consistently while making your dock or shore area even more aesthetically appealing than it already is. The  Aqua Lantern is a solar light up buoy that combines form, function, and durability in a way only Dunn Rite can. The solar light up buoy comes in a variety of colors, each easily distinguishable at a distance in almost any conditions, day or night. The solar light up buoy is 20" high and 20" in diameter. It uses a unique "Bell Shape" design to keep it vertical – and visible – in the water even in unpleasant conditions. Self-Sustaining Versatility With Solar Light Up Buoys You don't have to do anything to transition from daytime to night or from darkness to light – the built-in photocell gages the light available and turns the internal LEDs on or off as necessary. The Aqua Lantern fully recharges itself in about four hours of full sunlight a day and will maintain strong illumination for up to twenty hours at a time. The rechargeable batteries last up to two years, while the internal LEDs will easily operate without requiring regular maintenance or adjustment. This means you can use your Aqua Lanterns to help guide watercraft in or out of dock at night or in poor visual conditions. If you have multiple docks, you can color code for easy recognition. Select a different color to mark the safest swimming areas' boundaries, create extended aquatic "property lines," or warn of submerged dangers or inconveniences. They're perfect for neighborhood associations or informally shared water areas, clearly marking where it's safe to dive, where motors are permitted, or whatever else you determine is important or useful. You make the rules and set the priorities; the Aqua Lantern makes it easier to highlight and enforce your decisions. Solar Light Up Buoys: Innovative Illumination Safety is the top priority, but the aesthetics of the Aqua Lantern are a nice bonus. The unmistakable colors and glow are attention-grabbers by design (a warning or reminder that blends into the background isn't much of a warning or reminder!) However, at night or on those dreary, drizzling days, they add a warm, attractive touch to their surroundings. Easily visible from a distance, they draw the eye of (no doubt jealous) neighbors far across the way or make it easy to identify your section of the waterfront. Without actually projecting undesired light, they nevertheless help the area "feel" lit up and alluring. The Aqua Lantern solar light up buoy won't replace proper safety and attention around the water. What it can do is make your decisions clear and easy to recognize in almost any situation, supplementing your efforts with an attractive twist. With a great shoreline comes great responsibility – why not shoulder it as colorfully and clearly as possible?

Sometimes the best ideas are also the most colorful. If you run a commercial marina, manage a resort area, or simply have a home along the river or lake, you know that the joys of being out on the water come with practical safety concerns. Boaters need to be alerted to potential dangers below the surface or directed to the proper docks or mooring options. Swimmers need functional boundaries marking safe areas while still allowing easy passage for bodies or crafts. Sometimes it’s merely a matter of making things easy to see at a distance, in bad weather, or after dark. Sure, you can post various signs and mount spotlights, and take other brash steps to communicate with patrons. It’s a necessary intrusion on most maritime experiences. The most bucolic scenery in the world doesn’t justify drifting into the wrong waters or ripping open the bottom of your craft. Still, it would sure be nice to minimize that intrusion without sacrificing clarity or safety. It would be even better if some of these essential guides and warnings actually complimented their surroundings’ aesthetics instead of merely interrupting them. As long as we’re all idealistic about it, why not ask them to work in the dark just as well as they do in the light, all without requiring an extension cord a mile-and-a-half long?Solar Light Up Buoys Light Up My Lake The  Aqua Lantern Solar Buoy is the product of four decades of water-use innovation from the Dunn Rite family. Our buoys come in multiple bright colors and measure 20” high and 20” in diameter for easy visibility. The unique bell shape keeps them vertical in the water, even in unpleasant conditions. 21st-century solar technology allows full charge with only four hours of full sunlight a day and powers a glow visible up to half of a nautical mile away for up to 20 hours at a time. Solar powered light up buoys are also rather pretty. The Aqua Lantern Solar Buoy strikes the perfect balance between standing out clearly and fitting in comfortably. There’s no overlooking them or mistaking them for natural features or some other element of the background. Their shape and colors grab the eyes and guide the mind to whatever message you’ve chosen to reinforce.Show Me The Way With a Solar Light Up Buoy Easily mark the limits of where swimmers or boating is allowed or warn of submerged dangers. Indicate different docking areas by color or offer mooring options near prime fishing or other choice spots. You can still have your signage and prioritize safety, but the Aqua Lantern allows you to place reminders and guides anywhere you choose without the need to clutter up the area with unpleasant visuals. Because they’re relatively compact and affordable (compared to, say, a bulletin board or one of those airplanes with a sign behind it), you can use them in more places, more often – improving both safety and communication. If you have a purely recreational area, young people have always done better with colors than excessive texts. Solar buoys are non-intrusive and durable, easily marking different types of water activities, indicating age-appropriateness, or simply creating a “map” to follow for your treasure hunt, race, or other competitive fun. They provide plenty of light for easy guidance in a residential area without intruding through anyone’s curtains or shutters. Honestly, we find watching them out on the water rather soothing, even when they’re not being used to indicate, well… anything.What You’ve Been A-Missin’? Solar Light Up Buoys!

At the same time, they’re versatile enough to easily be adapted to your circumstances, style, and goals. We’re pretty sure we haven’t even thought of all the potential uses yet.
