'Light Boss' Developer Sheds New Cost-Saving Light On Energy Conservation
Immediate Energy Savings From Local Innovation

We see it happening everyday, everywhere we look. Big wattage lights sucking up energy from an already maxed-out electricity grid. If a company or facility is using High-intensity Discharge systems (HID) then they are at the mercy of existing technology and spiralling energy costs.

But a Cambridge, Ontario company has come up with a technology solution which suggests that things are all about to change. With the release of their new product line called Light Boss, their customers can take existing lighting systems and realize significant savings out of the gate--no looking back.

"LightBoss* is an energy saving controller for High-intensity Discharge (HID) lighting systems," says Randy Hood, technology specialist and co-founder of the company.

"Through the use of patented technology, the LightBoss can save up to 40% of the electricity cost of your HID lighting (both indoor and outdoor). One local company with an installed LightBoss unit is saving over $3,000 per month on their electricity costs," says Hood.

Hood points out that most lighting energy cost reduction solutions require a complicated,This is also known as your return on investment ledbright or ROI. It is important to spread the ROI over the life of the LED lamp life to truly see the short and long-term energy and maintenance savings. time consuming and expensive removal and retrofit of the entire lighting system while LightBoss simply requires the installation of a new lighting control panel. LightBoss enables users to save money without first having to spend a small fortune.

The possibilites are very exciting because it's not something which requires 15 years to recoup your investment.The ROI is typically 12 to 24 months depending on the number of HID lights and how long they are on each day. LightBoss is currently being tested and specified for parking lot and highway lighting by the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) in Ontario.

LightBoss is ideal for any installation where energy savings are desired and 100% illumination is not required 100% of the time,The particular demise with the incandescent bulb bluebright continues calmly yet non-stop and in less as compared to any year or two today the sole goods stocked in stores is going to be lower electricity bulbs," says Keith McGlone, sales associate for LightBoss.The best way to justify the cost and savings and to brightcrystal truly see how the transition to LED will impact your business is to do a detailed energy audit of existing conditions and compare them to the energy savings and maintenance costs found on the post-LED retrofit report.Typical installations include parking lots, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, schools, car dealerships, sports facilities, and the list goes on,An other advantage of using bluecrystal these bulbs is that they can also work in very cold weather which various other lights are unable to do. It also lasts very long, for about 60000 hours which is quite more than other lights." he said.

Local Car Dealership Turns To LightBoss

Ian Murdoch, owner of Waterloo Nissan was ready for LightBoss after the last hike in his hydro bill.

"We have a lot of HID lighting around the dealership. We are required to have adequate night time lighting and that can really get costly. LightBoss has enabled us to install it and use it without changing the whole system," says Murdoch. "I'm looking forward to seeing just how much I can actually save,The retrofit process itself can range from a simple count of existing lamps to a brightshine very detailed energy survey, which includes collecting information from your existing lighting," he said.
