LED Work Lighting Helps Contractors Get the Job Done
It truly amazes me how LEDs have transformed the lighting industry in
just a decade. In 2012, manufacturers introduced the first bulbs to
match the output of a standard 60W incandescent. They weren’t dimmable
and could cost $25 or more. Fast forward to 2023, and LEDs now dominate
the lighting market, and inexpensive replacement lamps can cost less
than $5 and last 10-20 years.

generation on a large scale. But it’s not so convenient for single user
electrical supply, or even most municipalities.

Fun fact. Light travels at approximately 186,000 miles per second. Whoosh.
That’s kind of fast, right? Faster than my old Ford pickup, anyway.

Save Money, Energy, and Maintenance Time with LED Luminaires
I was talking to my brother, Mark, on the phone last night. We’d been
trying to connect all week and finally got the chance. I’m in Arkansas
and he’s in Arizona, so the time difference can be a pain.
We just missed each other the day before because he was over with the neighbors across the street.

Today’s EV Chargers Powering Up Functionality
The electric vehicle (EV) market has had a great 2022, reaching
approximately 6% of total U.S. auto and truck sales in the third
quarter. While that might seem a small percentage, consider that it’s up
from just 2.2% during the same quarter in 2020.
