Replacing Halogen Lights with MSi's LED Lighting Will Deliver Huge Savings for Las Vegas Retailer

The "City of Lights" has gotten a little bit brighter and greener thanks to the addition of 4,500 MSi iPAR LED lighting fixtures. Summerlin, Nevada based furniture retailer RC Willey recently replaced all of the halogen spotlights in its 50,000 square-foot Las Vegas showroom with super efficient MSi LED lighting.

All of the showrooms 90-watt halogen spotlights were replaced with 10-watt iPAR LED lights. The conversion was a simple matter of unscrewing the old lights and screwing in the new ones,Ensuring that the low voltage downlight compact fluorescent fits in with the style and decor of the rest of the room is very important and in years gone by, this would not have been possible.That means it won't need replacing for sky lanterns the next 20 years or more if ran for approximately 6-8 hours a day. but the results were immediate and dramatic. Unlike hot burning halogen lights, the extremely efficient LED lights produce very little heat and within hours of installation store employees had noticed a drop in the showrooms temperature. Management was able to raise the air conditioner thermostat settings by four degrees resulting in an annual savings of $90,000 in cooling costs alone.

"Many retailers are a little concerned about the initial investment of converting to LED lighting," said Bruce Johnson, MSi managing partner. "But if they take the time to run the numbers, they'll see that switching over produces a great return on their investment."

LED lighting produces savings that go far beyond just cooling cost.The Led lamp light you purchase will be made up of two main components, apart from the bulb of course. These are known as the trim and the housing. The trim is the visible part of the light. MSi iPARs use a fraction of the power required by halogen spots while producing a no compromise beautiful light that enhances product displays. RC Willey has realized a savings of $182,000 yearly in electricity cost alone.

Additional savings are realized in the lower maintenance and replacement cost for LED lighting. The typical 90-watt halogen light burning 12 hours a day will need to be replaced approximately every four months. The 10-watt iPAR burning 12 hours a day will last for up to 12 years. For RC Willey's Vegas showroom that adds up to $21,000 annually they won't have to spend replacing burnt out halogen bulbs.

These MSI iPAR lights are packed with state-of-the-art features that can't be found in comparable LED lighting. Innovative POWERBANDa?¢ technology allows users to fine tune their lighting by selecting either 8, 10 or 12 watt output with the simple twist of a band found on the back of the light. The iPAR is fully dimmable using most standard dimmers and its CrimpFina?¢ design uses multiple thin fins for greater heat dissipation with less weight.Thankfully, the range now encompasses every fixture and fitting that you could led tube imagine which means that all tastes and style have been catered to and no consumer should feel that they are missing out on anything. Its PIC DATA PROa?¢ intelligent communications allows the use of a hand-held device to receive data from the light including hours of use, date of manufacture and wattage. They are available in a variety of color temperatures and beam angles.

"When RC Willey totaled up all the savings - the reduced power consumption of the lights themselves, air conditioning savings, and the lower cost of maintenance and replacement - they were really quite shocked," added Johnson. "They discovered that over the 12-year lifespan of the LED lights they would save somewhere in the neighborhood of $3.4 million in this one showroom alone. When retailers see these kinds of savings,Experts also suggest using low Projector Lamp voltage fluorescent mini lights. they realize that investing in LED lighting is like putting money in the bank."
