But as a DIY project it is easy, provided you're not bothered by jumping up on the roof. HD sells them for under $200 I think.
I rate it on scale of 1-10 as a DIY a 6.
I was in a home with them and recall one issue, they lite up the area when you don't want it also?

I think there are baffles or dampers that can be had to eliminate unwanted light if you so desire. In our previous home, we had 4 solar tubes and 2 attic fans installed by The Solar Guys. The installer was there less than 4 hours and the cost was just under $3000. We loved the lights, but not sure about the attic fans, since we had them installed before we moved in and had nothing to compare them to. We have not had any installed in our new home yet, but it's on the list of "Things to Do" (which seems to get longer each day).
