led channel letter lighting

Channel letter lighting is an efficient and energy-saving way to increase brand recognition and drive client visits to your store. Not only that, but its durability also means it saves on energy costs!

LED signs require less maintenance than neon or fluorescent signs and consume lower voltage power consumption, however their lighting may fade after long exposure to sunlight.

Cost

When investing in a sign for business purposes, it is critical that they fully comprehend all associated costs. LED lights use less energy and do not require heat sinks compared to neon bulbs – making them far less costly to run and maintain over their neon counterparts. Furthermore, LEDs are safer to use and more versatile compared to neon signs.

LED channel letter lighting costs depend on its size, style and materials used. A three-dimensional sign will cost more to construct than two-dimensional ones; some signs also require building permits or planning and zoning approval from authorities.

LED strip channels come in many different colors to meet the needs of businesses of all types and sizes. From indoor or outdoor signage, mounting them on walls or sign cabinets and supporting most voltage systems – including 120V, 230V and 277V systems – LED strip channels offer businesses everything they need for business growth. Their lenses improve light scattering for increased brightness and an appealing look.

Lifespan

Channel letter signs are three-dimensional metal or plastic signs that utilize light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to illuminate each letter, making them suitable for indoor and outdoor signage applications. As opposed to neon signs which use tubes filled with neon gas for glowing effect, LEDs provide more consistent illumination while being more energy-efficient than neon.

LEDs also boast longer lifespans than neon signs, making them an economical lighting solution for your business. Furthermore, these lights are more durable than their neon counterparts and can withstand rough handling and road bumps better; plus they require significantly less maintenance – saving money on service appointments and replacement costs!

Their VL4 Super HO module produces 233 lumens per module for bright, uniform lighting ideal for deep back-illuminated channel letters, halo lit routed acrylic block letters, backlit cabinet sign applications with shallow to deep can depths and backlit cab signs with shallow can depths.

Durability

Channel letter lighting is an effective way to increase the visibility of signs at night. It has become an increasingly popular option among restaurants, bars and other businesses that operate after dark; using illuminated signs will increase brand recognition while drawing customers closer.

Contrary to neon, LED modules can be installed without needing costly and bulky rebar and backbox structures for installation. This provides significant cost savings in fabrication, installation and energy usage costs as well as offering cleaner aesthetics compared to neon signs.

Customization

Channel letters are an effective way of showcasing your company name or logo and drawing customers in when it’s dark out. Front-lit or back-lit channels letters can stand out, providing silhouette effects or elegant illuminations; different shapes and sizes are also available to meet specific design needs.

LED channel letter signs are constructed from aluminum with transparent acrylic facings and are then routed into letters or numbers before being fastened with trim caps for secure fastening. Available in various colors, LED or neon lighting is often utilized for these signs.

LED backlighting is a popular choice for these signs, as it enables their lettering to be seen at night without turning on additional lights in your business. Installing this type of illumination is straightforward and can add significantly to the visual impact of your sign.
