@Xringer ehm? as they said basically its just two parabolic mirrors, i would say your likely cost guess is wrong.

What if you wanna turn the lights off?

WTF!!!!1, i jst thought of this, and i was like hey lemme google this in case some asshole made it. turns out someone did :(. IT WAS MY IDEA !!!!

The whole point of sunlight is not just visible light, but UV and IR. It warms and helps make vit. D. lol

That is SO weird. I had this same idea around the same time. There is also a guy in the 3rd world who does this with recycled 20 oz soda bottles. Freakin cool! I can't wait until I get my hands on a fiber optic bundle.
-
Retail stores with natural light sell 40% more than those with artificial light???
LOL!!! That is a total crock of BS..
That roof-top solar tracker (looks like a military radar dish) likely cost about 50 times as much as using CFL or LED lamps powered by solar PV.. (Which isn't cheap)..

ha1e, "but it only works when sun is up, and thats the time when you dont need it. "
Have you ever been in big office buildings?
The light there comes mainly from artificial light.

Ironically, there is still no system that's cheaper than oil or coal. No family with an average household salary can build a solar system, including this system, and save money. Everyone who builds these systems always talk about critical mass to make these systems afordable, but we're now at 30 years and there's still no technology that can do it. It's disappointing.
