I agree that you should wait until after you move in as the sun and the direction you're home and windows face will make a huge difference as to whether you do or don't need solar tubes.the solar guys are fabulous and know exactly where to place solar tubes in every model home built here in The Villages. LED lights might help some people but there is nothing better than natural light and it definitely cheers me up when my home is filled with natural light versus LED light bulbs. I had 2 installed in my wisteria model home. One large one in the living dining area and one smaller one in my kitchen sink area has made a huge difference in the lighting in my home. Many people such as myself are affected by lack of sunlight and this has now made my home so cheerful and bright I just love it. LED light bulbs would never have worked for me as I need natural light. It would be smarter to wait until after you move in before you decide if you do or do not need solar tubes and where you need them. The night light addition allows you to declare the price of those solar tubes as a credit on your income tax now and it gives a nice subtle night light in those areas at night. I just love mine.
