Abstract
Home Light is a sign equipped with a backlight and a mechanism for insertion of a set of numbers displaying a home or business address. To use Home Light, a user chooses a location on a house or other structure that is easily viewed from the street and not obscured by any trees, shrubbery or other impediments. He then attaches the sign to the structure in the selected location. The sign is then hard-wired to the structure's electrical system or utilizes another power source to provide power to the backlighting unit and illuminate the numbers.
