Tax credit was it for me.
Very happy we found Solatube. Soooo much better than a traditional skylight. The two 10" worked out great and provided plenty of natural light. We also added a dimmer, which enables us to use the tax credit. Win win! Two 10" Solatubes

These are awesome.
So, got a spot picked out for a 3rd Solar Tube. Purchased two late Last week with the teardrop cover and the Solar night light. I believe the Solar, remote controlled dimmer is standard . Added Natural sunlight to my otherwise sun deprived living areas...

The dimmer add-on is worth it!
The daylight dimmer is a great feature, allowing us to control the amount of light coming in.
