Solar Billboard

Why Choose Solar Billboard Lighting?
The cost of electricity has increased over the last few years more dramatically than ever before in history, and the current industry trends do not show any slowdown, or reversal, in these price growth trends. Additionally, the cost of doing business is on the rise while consumer spend¬ing is becoming tighter, and more hard fought, leading to lower profit margins, and tighter budgets. As an outdoor advertising company, the cost of lighting your billboards can be extremely high, and eat away large amounts of company profits. Solar Billboard Lighting, on the other hand, requires no elec¬tricity (in the normal sense) and therefore, through electric cost savings over the lifetime of the Solar Bill¬board Lighting System, they completely pay for themselves more than once over. And, in a world that is increasingly concerned with cleaner, greener, more ecologically homes and businesses.
		Financial Benefits  Installing the Solar Light is more affordable that installing a traditional Billboard Lighting Kit. When you choose the Solar Light, you cost your installation costs in all of the following areas • Trench Wiring – with the Solar Light you do not need to run underground wire from the nearest electrical transformer to your billboard. • Trenching – Because the Solar Light is a completely standalone, self-contained Billboard Lighting System, you do not need to pay the additional costs of digging trenches for your underground wiring • Replacement Landscaping – Because you do not have to trench to install the Solar Light, there is no additional cost for replacing and repairing the ground that is torn up during the trenching process. • Land Usage Rights – With no need for external wire connections, etc, the Solar Light allows you, the outdoor advertiser to provide consistent, affordable lighting to your billboard locations without the need to negotiate with property owners to use their property for underground wiring and landscaping. • No Electric Meter – With the Solar Light there is no need to meter your Billboard Lighting System. This means you save the cost of purchasing and installing a meter, and the electrical connection fees. • No Electric Usage and Demand Charges – Because the Solar Light is entirely Solar Powered, you don’t need to pay for electrical usage.
Electronic Control  In order to reduce the warm up time of the Solar Billboard Lighting Systems, and compensate for lamps as they age, a specially designed electronic control system has been developed to deliver a consistent and even flow of power to the lamp once the arc has been struck to begin lighting. Recently, innovations in Metal Halide and other HID Lamp technology have made it possible to deliver High Output, Daylight Quality Colors - all at prices and energy usage far below those of traditional lighting sources. The Solar Light utilizes the very best of these technological advancements by incorporating a Single Stage, Switch-Mode DC Input Lamp Driver which has been optimized for Ultra-High Efficiency. This means - reductions in power consumption, weight, size and cost. • Ultra-High Efficiency The Electronic Controller within the Solar Group is designed to deliv¬er maximum light output with minimal power input. These controllers are designed to drive High Intensity Discharge Lamps with losses of less than 10%. The Solar Group Solar Billboard Lighting Systems use a 35W Input Bulb - allowing for losses of less than 3W. • How It Works The Electronic Controller in the Solar Group is designed to be able to strick and run a number of HID lamps from a Low DC Voltage Source. To achieve this in an affordable way, the Solar Group uses a High Frequency Resonance Technique instead High Intensity AC Input to start the lamp. This new technique provides superior starting characteristics, and reduces the possibility of interference with radio communications and other electronic equipment.
