Bridge Lighting, Bronx, New York, SOX 180 Watt
Roadways, Bridges and Tunnels move America and if we add up all the oil we can save by replacing Mercury Vapor lights with Low Pressure Sodium, (LPS, aka SOX) America would have a windfall.
The large number of fixtures needed for these applications provides an excellent opportunity for energy savings. Uniform, glare free LPS lights can upgrade illumination levels and reduce energy costs nation wide.
In Long Beach California, SOX lamps replaced an existing mercury vapor system in both commercial and residential areas. The installation realized a 70% reduction in energy consumption while maintaining or improving previous light levels and uniformity. The yellow SOX light was widely accepted by residents and even more warmly received by the business proprietors.
