Happy customers keep us happier
Using22W LED corn bulb to replace 125W metal halide around the restaurante, 18W 4ft LED T8 Tube light in the kitchen and the storage room, 40 watts linear light fixtures for wet locations to illuminate the arch and 180W LED Street Light Cobra for the parking lot.
Counting the ballasts, about 20% waste, we went from 1680 Watts to 265 Watts saving 84% just in energy and thousands in maintenance. The dealership looks like a stadium. Outstanding.
In that sector alone they are saving over $24,000 per year with 194% more light and near zero maintenance for the next 15 years.

We have replaced the majority of our conventional lighting with LED replacements in order to reduce associated maintenance, increase light output and efficiency. A competing LED supplier claimed that their product (at approximately 20x the price) was superior due to other bulbs not being designed for enclosed fixtures and failing due to heat. After a 3 month test period with one bulb, and some operational monitoring (see attached pictures), we started replacing the rest of the facility. We have also started replacing bulbs at other facilities, as well.
These 54W corn bulbs outperform our previous 250W Metal Halide bulbs, we are able to bypass nonfunctional ballasts instead of replacing them, and our lights now come on instantly. Our test bulb has been in service for nearly a year and we are thrilled with the results.

We do not care so much about the savings in lighting, which are about 40% because we have machinery and ovens using 100 times more power, but we can do our job much easier. All the workers are happier and work more relaxed.
Our board cannot think of a better investment and at the same time improvement.
We replaced 175 watt metal halide with 36W LED Corn Bulb. Even though the bulb is rated 175 watts, including the ballast consumption we were using over 200 watts and now only 36.
Eddy Thank you very much for showing me the way of more light for my facilities, saving money in the future with a small investment today.
In the future will be changing all of our fluorecent light for led ones. My employees are very gratefull for the big change, they work under better lighting conditions and also will be a big saving for me on the electrical bill, Every body wins.
Thank you very much and here are some of the pictures of the work done. By the way, I use my phone to watch the warehouse and I can now see much better.
See you soon www.metrodooraventura.com Herman Alter, Owner
Replaced 8 foot tubes 75 watts with 36 Watt 8 Ft LED T8 Tube.
We are a bakery in Pompano Beach on a 10,000 square feet warehouse with troffers at 17 feet height.
The Ledradiant consultant proposal said we'd save about 55%, but we got actually more savings.
For each troffer in our warehouse we replaced 4 fluorescents with only 3 Ledradiant tubes, as these are much brighter than the originals. I'm a thechnical type of person, so I downloaded an app to my iphone to get a reading on the brightness under fluorescents and then under the LEDs and I read twice the light with only 3 tubes.
End result is we have twice the light with 18 x 3 = 54 Watt compared to over 160 Watt for the 4 fluorescents with ballast, so we are actually saving over 66% just in energy, not counting A/C savings, tubes replacement and maintenance. Very happy.
