The benefits of L E D technology
L E D s are a time tested solid state technology that emits a single colour of
light when an electric current is applied. They are revolutionising the lighting
world. Numerous benefits of this technology include extreme long life,
reliability and exceptional energy efficiency. Compared to a standard
incandescent solution the benefits in energy consumption and maintenance of
using the ObstiVision L E D solution are clear:
Save time, money and hassle with ObstiVision
The efficiency, reliability and freedom from maintenance that characterise
ObstiVision will save you money over time! Considering the cost of
ownership, you can have your payback period as short as 1 year by using
ObstiVision as compared to the conventional obstruction lighting system.
