1 2012 Upgrading to Energy Efficient Spectralite LED Tube Lights Ballast Free Fluorescent Replacements

2 INTRODUCTION Spectralite Technologies is an American Supplier of LED Technologies, including LED Lighting and fluorescent replacement LED Lighting. Currently, American Companies and Government Facilities are upgrading their lighting to new higher efficiency fluorescents to include, T8 and T5 fluorescent units. Upgrading to LED Fluorescent Replacement Tube lighting is significantly less expensive and offers a substantial savings in energy costs over all fluorescents. As an added bonus, LED lighting is the most efficient lighting source and offers a longer life than fluorescents. PURPOSE Currently, the US Government s Energy initiative includes incentives for American businesses to upgrade their facilities to Energy Efficient lighting. Adding incentives from State and local Power Companies, a business can recoup nearly 100% of its investment from rebates alone. The initial investment in LED Fluorescent replacement can be recouped in less than 24 months through energy savings alone. As a result of the fifty to eighty thousand hour life of the LED units, costs associated with bulb and ballast replacement will be reduced one hundred percent, as well.

3 TECHNOLOGY and ADVANTAGES Spectralite LED Tube Lights are designed to replace traditional and non-traditional fluorescent lighting. Unlike upgrading to T8 or T5 fluorescent bulbs, SpectraLite LED Tube lights can be used in current fixtures without a ballast; significantly reducing costs associated with fixture, bulb and ballast replacement. Advantages of switching to LED Tube Lights: 100% of light energy is focused toward the ground Easy Install, straight 110v power to one side Recyclable Greatly reduced residual heat signature Greatest available Energy reduction Certified Green Technology that qualifies for the highest credits according to EPAct Upgrading to LED tube lights is easier than changing a ballast. To upgrade, the current ballast in a fixture is removed and one side of the fixture is straight wired with 110 volt power. Upgrading to T5 and T8 fluorescents requires new fixtures, bulbs, ballasts and a substantial amount of labor. An LED tube light upgrade is fast, easy and less expensive than fluorescents while offering the greatest energy savings.

4 TECHNOLOGY ENERGY EFFICIENCY and SAVINGS Spectralite LED Tube Lights are designed to replace traditional Along with a 50 to 70% reduction in energy consumption, LED and non-traditional fluorescent lighting. Unlike upgrading to T8 Tube Lights offer one hundred percent lighting efficiency. Unlike or T5 fluorescent bulbs, SpectraLite LED Tube lights can be used fluorescent lighting, LED tube lights focus V all of its light towards in current fixtures without a ballast; significantly reducing costs the ground at a 120 degree angle. associated with fixture and ballast replacement. The following is an example of the cost savings of switching to Spectralite LED Tube lights also offer a 50 to 70% savings on Spectralite LED Tube Lights. electrical costs over fluorescent. The following is an example of the cost Replacing savings 1000 of 40 switching watt fluorescent to Spectralite bulbs with LED 1000 Tube Lights. **Using Replacing 10 cents 10,000 a 40 Kilowatt watt fluorescent hour as your bulbs energy with cost. 1,000 The **Using cost to 10 run cents those a Kilowatt bulbs 24 hour hrs a as day your for energy a year: cost. 40 The watt cost Fluorescent to run those = $35,040 bulbs 24 hrs a day for a year: 15 watt LED = $13, watt Fluorescent = $350,400 Savings 15 watt = LED $21,900 = $131,400 a year Savings = $219,000 a year Cost of 1000 LED Tubes, Special Pricing = $31,500 Lifespan Cost of - 10,000 50,000 LED to 80,000 Tubes, hrs, Special 5.5 Pricing to 9 years. = $310,500 5 Lifespan year savings - 50,000 minus to bulb 80,000 cost hrs, = $78, to 9 years. 5 year savings minus bulb cost = $784,500 The elimination of bulb and ballast replacement and the labor This doesn t include savings from not having to replace bulbs and costs ballasts associated and the with labor it costs is another associated substantial with it. savings for LED Lighting over fluorescents. Due to the lighting efficiency of LED tube There lights, are other even greater advantages energy to switching savings can to be LED achieved Tube Lights: by replacing 4 bulb units with only 2 LED tubes lights. Federal, state and local incentives can also reduce the cost to switch to high efficiency lighting. As an example, GulfPower and Southern 100% Company s of light energy Earth Cents is focused program toward offers the thirty ground cents for every watt Easy of Install, energy straight saved by 110v upgrading power to to one LED side lighting.
