I hope introducing a product with many environmental qualities is acceptable to this group. If not, let me know and it won't happen again. This is a product that looks like Neon, I put some up and it's very easy to install. 80% more energy efficient No Mercury All material is recyclable ROHS Compliant http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROHS cUL Approved http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwriters_Laboratories For every foot of glass neon you use about 9 Watts of energy and flex neon you use about 1 - 1.5 Watts depending on color and voltage. That's a significant difference! We also found the LED Neon Flex is much brighter and in cold climates like Canada works much better. LED's thrive and last longer in cold, where Neon's life is cut short from the cold. Installation from Neon to LED Neon Flex was less expensive, more uniform and will be easier and much less expensive when repairs need to be done. If a piece of flex is damaged, you can snip it out and splice in a new piece. Very easy! This will most defiantly reduce mercury waste, since every piece of glass neon has mercury and where does it go when replaced? http://www.ledneonflex.com for more details or questions, they seem to always have live support up and going.
