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.
