Illuminated channel letter signs are an effective way to promote your business and increase brand recognition, as well as build credibility and establish instant authority.

Front lit channel letters feature LED lighting inserted at the base of their sign and directed perpendicularly towards their acrylic face for an impressive illumination effect. SloanLED’s V180 series is an excellent solution for this application.

Low Energy Consumption

Channel letter signs illuminated with LED lighting are an eye-catching way to draw customers in and increase brand recognition throughout the night. They use less energy than neon or fluorescent bulbs and require low maintenance; installation and setup times can also be reduced significantly.

Illuminated channel letter signs can last years depending on their location and weather conditions. Signs near ocean waters may be affected by salt air which accelerates material degradation; signs exposed to extreme cold temperatures may crack or fade over time.

A typical channel letter sign is typically constructed of aluminum returns, faces and trim. The trim binds these together while lighting elements can be installed either in front or behind of the face for easy viewing. Other designs available for these signs are halo lit signs as well as front lit ones as well as open back/face lit models.

Long Lifespan

Illuminated channel letter signs may last 10 years or longer depending on their materials, location and the LED lights installed inside them. Over this time period, they should continue to radiate attractive light while remaining clean and free from harsh chemicals that could potentially harm their acrylic face.

Channel letters come with two types of lighting options – front-lit and back-lit. Front-lit letters feature LED lighting inserted through an acrylic face for an eye-catching halo effect that draws passersby in, while back-lit channels use light inserted behind clear polycarbonate backing, which can then be covered with translucent vinyl to add some color pop and create a different halo effect.

OSRAM BackLED S Plus G3 LED modules are perfect for backlighting small and flat channel letters as well as single or double-sided light boxes, with their high module efficacy of up to 130 lumens per Watt making them an excellent option for your backlighting project. UL listed, OSRAM BackLED S Plus G3 modules feature an outstanding module efficacy rate – making them an outstanding option when considering backlighting solutions for small projects such as sign backlighting.

Installing channel letter signs is made effortless when using the Plug-n-Play EZLit power delivery system, which comes fully assembled and ready for mounting without the need for electrical experience or licensing requirements. In addition, this weatherproof and safe solution makes for a simple yet cost-effective signage solution.

This sign type comes in various illumination options, including front-lit letters (most commonly), back-lit letters (typically brighter option) and combination letters for maximum impact. Front-lit letters tend to be the most popular. Front-lit letters produce illumination from the front of the sign while back-lit letters light from behind for additional brightness and combination letters create an impactful visual display by being illuminated from both front and back of a sign at once.

Illuminated channel letters require ongoing care for them to remain looking their best. To do this, it’s essential that any dirt that accumulates on their surfaces be washed off as soon as it appears, pests should be checked for, and electrical inspections performed regularly – you may even require professional repair of structural or electrical problems.

Customizable

Channel letter signs are one of the most widely used business sign options for retail businesses that operate after dark. They’re an economical way to attract more customers into your storefront.

Illuminated channel letters are an excellent way for businesses looking to attract attention during night or low light conditions.
