Illuminated channel letters are an efficient form of signage. Their illuminated glow draws immediate attention from afar while being easily customized for any brand identity or message.

GE’s LED lighting solutions are tailored to reduce maintenance time and costs, such as Tetra PowerMAX and miniMAX solutions that allow a five-inch depth capital T to be lit using only one string of modules instead of two strings of modules.

Increased Visibility

Channel letters are constructed out of metal or plastic materials and include letters or other characters to represent a brand or company. Channel letters often feature LED lighting to attract more attention during daytime than non-illuminated signs, particularly during business hours.

Select a vibrant hue for your channel letters to ensure they stand out among other signage and buildings. Use a color wheel or consult with an expert to discover which hues work best; neon light does not illuminate well at night, therefore neon should not be used.

If your client prefers an architectural feel, mounting their sign with studs instead of through the face can give it a more subdued appearance while keeping electrical components hidden behind it and reducing maintenance and cleaning costs. Furthermore, this allows you to choose any lighting design without considering wall color restrictions when choosing your halo or face lighting designs; plus it is eco-friendly due to fastened aluminum panels which disperse heat more effectively.

Longevity

Longevity in channel letter signs depends on its durability and materials used. Signs exposed to salt air or direct sunlight are more prone to degrading over time, leading to color fading that compromises its aesthetic value and increases energy and maintenance costs.

LED signs consume significantly less electricity than neon ones, leading to significant savings on utility bills. Furthermore, they can even be retrofitted using existing neon GTO wire and further cutting costs.

LEDs are built to last, making them a worthwhile long-term solution for businesses seeking an alternative to traditional signage. Unlike neon tubes which tend to shatter quickly when handled roughly, LEDs are durable enough to withstand rough handling without shattering easily – this means fewer service calls and maintenance appointments which makes your investment all the more worthwhile over time.

Eco-Friendly

LED bulbs used to illuminate channel letters require far less electricity than fluorescent or neon bulbs do, thereby significantly cutting your energy costs if your sign remains lit all night long.

LED lighting is far more durable than its neon predecessor, making it the superior choice for businesses that operate post-dark. LED lights can be utilized for various applications such as pylons and monument signs.

Fabricated halo lit channel letters offer a versatile way to personalize the appearance of your brand image and stand out from competitors. Constructed of clear acrylic with LED lights illuminating its back, creating an eye-catching “halo” effect when illuminated at night, these signs are great options for businesses wanting to attract customers in an eye-catching way – there are various sizes, fonts and colors from which you can select for this lighted signage option.

Affordable

LED channel letters offer a cost-effective solution to adding or updating business signage, using less energy than conventional options and lasting for up to 60,000 hours – four times longer than neon signs, making them an invaluable investment for your company.

LED lighting requires less maintenance than other sign types, like neon signs. LEDs don’t need special glass or coating and are more resilient against harsh weather conditions – especially if your sign is near an ocean, where salt air accelerates material deterioration.

The most commonly seen illuminated channel letter sign is front lit, where LED’s are installed into its face to illuminate it. You can also get backlit or halo-lit signs which shine illumination from behind acrylic facing panels for an “halo” effect. Programmable LED signs allow you to customize both lighting color and timing settings as needed.
