The city hired Bill FitzGibbons to create the display. He is known internationally as a light artist, and the person at the helm of Blue Star Contemporary Art Center. I was a huge fan of his illumination of the Alamo at the first Luminaria, and still love the thick,We can produce led light,divinglight,led lamp according to your requirements. pulsating beams of lights beneath I-37 at Houston and Commerce streets. But I'm not sure his style works on the River Walk.
I realize the city tried hanging the LEDs from branches, but that the effect wasn't as magical as the incandescent bulbs. As I understand it, LEDs are indeed brighter, but the bulb itself is smaller, and so you almost need to bunch them to produce that wow factor on the eye. But I wonder,Buy brightstal01 from online bike shop Merlin Cycles and choose from a range of lights including Hope and Blackburn lights, I just wonder, what they would look like if they hung from the branches in addition to wrapping the trunks.
Houston Street exemplifies this. Even though the official lighting ceremony isn't until Thursday, Houston Street (from St. Mary's to Navarro streets) was aglow Saturday night. There, the trees had lights both wrapped and hanging, resembling weeping willows.
The real question is whether the switch to LEDs was worth it. The cost figures are disproportionate, but that kind of goes with LED territory — the lights themselves are extremely expensive. The city spent more than $580,000 in 2012 compared to the normal average of $75,000, which was paid for by the Paseo del Rio Association. And, in the next two years, the city's financial burden decreases to an average of $127,000 per year with LEDs.
Figures show the city will save about $3,000 a year on the electric bill. For even La Grange, that's nothing.
And everybody's so quick to hop on the energy-savings bandwagon. And usually, one is right to expend such energy and risk spraining an ankle. But is saving roughly 63,000 kilowatt-hours during the holidays a little or a lot of energy? Seriously, do you really know? It sounds like a lot, but relative to what?
This isn't the Grinch talking, by the way. I love Christmas, and what it's all about, Charlie Brown. But here's the thing: I do not know is how much of a tradition these much-beloved incandescent bulbs are, which have been up since as long as I can remember. I'm not sure what predated them and for how long.
A friend said, if the city never evolved, then it would still be using gas lamps to light the River Walk. I tell you what, if it did, the city would save energy, and it would look better than what's up there now.
Algae Farm's selection of the LumiGrow solution followed a review of agricultural lighting products. The LumiGrow system was selected for its independently proven ability to promote superior yields at a fraction of the cost of fluorescent lighting. Energy-efficient LumiGrow LED lighting will save the company $400 thousand in the first year following installation and provide sustained savings in the form of lower electrical costs, year after year,We are professional led tube,brightcrystal2011,led bulbs manufacturers and factory in China. for the lights' 10-year lifespan. Further, by selecting the LumiGrow system, Algae Farm avoids the release of mercury into the environment, a toxic waste hazard inherent to fluorescent lighting.

By growing in a climate-controlled indoor environment, Algae Farm can achieve predictable and scalable yields while it maintains the highest purity standards.
"Algae Farm is committed to providing commercial algal products reliably. This requires that we eliminate uncertainties and control production variables, including light," said Algae Farm CEO Rick Berman. He continued, "With the LumiGrow solution, we are assured of a lasting, highest-quality lighting source for our crops."
