LED Exit Signs

Both Green and Red LED Exit Signs are code compliant and choice of color is up to the consumer.

Visibility, brightness and long life are our very important key factors that should be thought about when purchasing and exit sign. Light emitting diode or LED exit signs have proven to be successful in the reducing electricity consumption up to 85%. LED exit signs can save money and power while being while emitting considerable amounts of light. A good example would be a typical ordinary traffic light. This Traffic light uses LED just like the LED exit signs. The Traffic light will use between 6 to 25 watts and an incandescent traffic signal would be using up to 150 watts. This example shows why LED exit signs are super efficient semiconductor signs.

Most of the time we go on with our daily activities and never really pay much attention to exit signs. However, these signs may one day save your life. In case of an emergency, we need to think fast and an LED exit sign can help. For instance, if there is a fire we need to evacuate the building as soon as possible. An LED exit sign is very bright and visible and can be seen even through some smoke. Semiconductor components make up LED exit signs. An electron within the semiconductor changes from a high energy state to a low energy state. This releases a photon at the right frequency and produces visible light. The LED exit sign uses this process which produces high visibility and brightness while emitting low amounts of heat.

Exit signs are not all equal. They can be found with high wattages of up to 40 watts for and incandescent exit sign or as low as less than two watts for the LED exit sign. When you look at the wattages you must also look at the product. Some products are used just a few hours a day or week. For a product such as an exit sign which runs twenty four hours a day seven days a week, wattage is very important. LED exits signs don’t have bulbs that need to be replaced like the incandescent or fluorescent exit sign lights. Often times the payback with using and LED exit signs is less than a year.
