Harnessing Lighting: A Guide to Wireless Fixture Controls
In the constantly changing world of lighting technology, wireless
fixture control marks a significant leap forward. These systems, defined
by their ability to manipulate lighting conditions, without the need for hard-wiring,
are swiftly becoming a vital tool for electrical contractors and
lighting designers.

The Bright Future of 3-D Printed Light Fixtures
The concept of 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing,
initially surfaced in the 1980s, thanks largely to the innovative work
of engineer Chuck Hull. Hull invented a process called
'stereolithography', or SLA, a method that allowed for the creation of
3D models layer by layer, literally bringing ideas to life. It was a
revolutionary breakthrough that sparked the beginning of the 3D printing
era.

Guess What? Fuses Still Matter
Up until three years ago, I lived with a couple small boxes of spare
fuses that sat on top of the water heater in the basement, ready to be
drawn from should the rare combination of, say, the toaster and
microwave operating at the same time happen to shut down power to the
kitchen.

Stability, Reliability, and Longevity for Rooftop Support Systems
Rooftop support systems are an integral part of conduit, piping, and
mechanical installations that often go underappreciated. These unsung
heroes of the rooftop world provide a stable and secure foundation for
equipment, ensuring that everything from HVAC units to solar panels
stays in place, regardless of weather conditions or external forces.

The Intrinsic Value of Decorative Lighting in Commercial Spaces
Recently, my wife and I had the “pleasure” of visiting a relatively new
hospital complex. For almost a year, I watched the 5-story edifice being
built as I traveled up and down Highway 49 in Northwest Arkansas.
