What HID technologies are most efficient for my facility?

English: Spectrum of a metal halide lamp

What HID technologies are most efficient for my facility?

For high-ceiling and exterior applications, specify metal halide or high-pressure sodium vapor lamps. In areas you wish to highlight, or accent particular merchandise, use small metal halide spotlights. To learn about HID lighting systems:

National Lighting Product Information Program: "HID Accent Lighting Systems" Report

In some cases, you may be able to reduce the wattage of your already installed HID lamps by purchasing and installing specially designed reduced wattage metal halide lamps. For example, a special 360-watt metal halide can replace a 400-watt metal halide. Consult your lighting professional for more information.

Project Suggestion

Consult your lighting professional about specifying more energy efficient T5 lighting systems instead of HID lighting systems.

Best Advertising

With the advent of the internet, all other forms of advertising have had to restructure. Pricing has had to come down and effectiveness demonstrated. A sign on a stick no matter how fancy can never compare to coming up high in internet listings. Phone book anyone? Newspaper ad? Blimp? Sky writing? Sign on bus stop? Flyers? Direct mail?

First business: "Hey did you see one of my 300 flyers i handed out?" Second business: "Did you see one of my 700,000 Google Ads that appeared when people actually looking for my product searched?"
