if you need high visibility signage solutions, LED channel letters could be just what the doctor ordered. Not only are these signs beautiful and energy efficient but also bring increased customer traffic for return on investment purposes.

Signs composed of light diffusing acrylic with routed channels to accommodate flexible LED strips are designed for quick installation and minimal upkeep, offering versatility of shape to meet various letter styles and logos. They’re easy to install and require minimal upkeep.

They are easy to install

Installing illuminated channel letter signs with some help is relatively straightforward. The installation process involves prepping the installation surface, creating a template and marking wiring channels at the back of the sign. In addition, use of a multimeter or voltage tester can ensure proper functioning of the circuit.

For very thin channel letter signs, LED modules equipped with current limiting resistors may provide the best solution. These resistors prevent LEDs from consuming all the power available to them – which could otherwise cause shorts and damage both the sign itself and its power source.

One option for creating night-time signage is using light diffusing acrylic backing with thin channels routed with flexible LED tape siliconed in place, enabling perpendicular LED alignment with letter faces for maximum light output and good night visibility. Both SloanLED’s V180 series and ILT’s Sideview series products take this approach.

They are durable

Illuminated channel letters are an effective way to bring visibility and draw customers in to your business, offering durable yet easy installation. Furthermore, their energy efficient nature makes them a cost-effective solution for any establishment operating after dark.

Illustrated channel letter signs come in an assortment of colors and illumination options. Some feature front lit faces while others can be back/front (duel lit). You can select aluminum sides and backing with translucent acrylic faces or opt for an open face design for an authentic vintage aesthetic.

Location and weather conditions play a significant role in determining the longevity of illuminated channel letters. Signs located near beaches may be subject to salt air that accelerates material degradation; exposed to extreme temperatures can damage or deplete LED lights within your sign, further diminishing its longevity.

With an LED lighting system designed to maximize its lifespan, illuminated channel letters can last many years. GE’s OptiLens technology helps ensure maximum value from each of your LED lights by increasing their lifespan and optimizing performance.

They are energy-efficient

Channel letter lighting is an effective way of drawing attention and attracting potential customers after dark, especially for businesses open during evening hours such as restaurants or grocery stores. Furthermore, its LED technology reduces energy consumption by up to 80% when compared with traditional neon-lit signs.

GE’s innovative OptiLens technology boosts LED performance by redirecting waste light back toward the lens and improving luminosity (or lumens per watt), which measures how much light an LED produces relative to its power usage.

LEDs in channel letter signs may last years, depending on their use environment. A sign near the ocean may be exposed to salt air that accelerates deterioration; extreme temperatures may also shorten their lifespan prematurely. But you can extend its lifetime further using an outdoor-grade lighting system with LED bulbs designed specifically for illumination channel letters.

They are customizable

Channel letter signs are internally illuminated three-dimensional letters or logos visible at night, which are made up of internally illuminated three-dimensional letters or logos and illuminated from within. They come in many fonts, sizes and shapes to meet different business requirements and can feature front or back lighting options.

Channel letters can be painted to complement your store’s brand or backlit with colored halos for greater impact.

LED lighting is an energy-saving, long-term lighting option ideal for illuminated channel letter signs, using less power and lasting longer than traditional signage. Furthermore, it is much safer than neon bulbs.

LED channels can be directly plugged into 120V, 230V and 277V systems without the need for a transformer, offering another way of drawing customers in. Furthermore, twinkling lights add visual interest while drawing additional customers towards your business.
