LEDs coming to streets, airports and harbors near you...

We love
companies like 
and
that are
lighting the way in new markets with products
that not only reduce the power consumption by
90% vs. incandescent lights, but make lighting
more reliable and reduce maintenance costs
too.

LEDs
are a natural for these applications that need
ultra-high reliability - 100,000 hour life (11 years)
and energy efficiency. LEDtronics has
pioneered LED street lights
that
plug into millions of existing street light
fixtures that will save cities and states millions
of dollars and virtually eliminate costly
failures.
Carmanah has combined LED lighting with solar power and battery technolgy to revolutionize airport runway lights and marine navigation lights where a failure or one or all (in the case of a power failure at an airport) can mean life or death. Even more impressive is these lights don't need power or control wires (perfect for "uncontrolled" airports) and can be programmed to "talk" to each other by radio frequencies to ensure they flash in the proper sequence and timing.
Now they have added street signs and bus station lighting to increase safety and security again.
Once again, saving energy makes dollars and sense in every dimension. No compromise.
