LED Street Light Now Being Installed in Puerto Rico
SATELLITE BEACH, Fla., -- Leading the global shift towards sustainable LED lighting solutions, Lighting Science Group (OTCBB: LSCG) announced today the launch of its high performance and feature-rich RoadMaster(TM) street light. Currently being installed throughout Puerto Rico, the Company's new street light provides a reduction in energy costs during its extended operating life, helping governments and communities avoid soaring energy and maintenance costs associated with traditional high pressure sodium (HPS) street lights. Priced at a fraction of other LED roadway luminaires, Lighting Science Group's new RoadMaster(TM) pays for itself by avoiding just one HPS lamp replacement, let alone the 4-6 traditional street light lamp changes it is expected to avoid over its rated life.
