LED Retrofit - Converting from Neon to LEDs
Posted by Resource 4Signs on Thu, Jul 12, 2012 @ 07:05 AM
This Supercuts store in Westwood has 2 sets of channel letter signs on raceways, one in the front and one on the side. Both sets of channel letters were originally made with neon tubing inside. Unfortuntely, neon tends to require numerous service calls after the first few years. This can become quite costly.
After servicing their neon sign many times, the owners decided to convert one of their signs to LEDs. The sign always seemed to be flickering, buzzing, or just not staying lit. So we took out all the neon, GTO wires, old transformers, and existing wiring and replaced them with all new insides. The sign now has red LED's, new wiring, and new transformers. This LED retrofit will save the owner money with fewer service calls and lower electricity bills. They are excited to have their sign working again.
LED's are taking over the neon industry! They work better, they are safer, and they save you money in the long run. Yes, it might cost you a little more right now, but you will be happy you did it later! Call us for a quote.
