Artist and designers
have developed an interest in the
potential for NEON as a legitimate
lighting medium and art form due
to its unmatched brilliance, low maintenance and wide
choice
of colors. Lumen output from neon tubes is 500 lumens per foot.
 |
Neon tubes generally come with four (4) sizes in diameter 9mm, 10mm, 12mm
|
and
15mm. Any size above 15mm are called
Cold Cathode tubes.
 |
Neon
(if installed correctly) has low maintenance. The life expectancy of neon
fittings is
12 to 15 years while neon ballast can last for 10 years. This eliminates
re-lamping
particularly
where tubes are in difficult to reach locations.
|
 |
Neon tubes is custom made to the specification of the designer and on-site
|
measurements are verified to assure exact and optimum lumen effect.
 |
Neon
is best suited for sharp and tight spaces compared to other lighting
fixtures. |
 |
Concealed
neon lighting requires only 3 inches by 3 inches laying area. |
 |
Neon tubing is butted against the next tube to assure a continuous and
steady |
flow without any dark spots or hot spots.
 |
Neon
can be dimmed to as low as 40 to 60 % of its total brilliance |
brilliance without
resorting to expensive ballast and dimmers.
 |
There are a variety number of colors available to blend any color scheme.
|
This includes a number of white neon colors such as warm white
3000K, white 6500K,
snow white, super warm
white and Daylight 3500K.
