EcoTek Lighting has installed a high-performance, energy-efficient light box with Direct Backlit LED Array technology at the San Diego Natural History Museum along with three beautifully designed and engineered poster frames. The three matching poster frames hold movie posters on the south wall of the theater entry vestibule just off the atrium.

The thin-profile, two-inch-deep displays combine superb styling aesthetics with superior functionality, and the all-welded aluminum construction of the extruded lightweight frame ensures premium product durability and is 100% recyclable.

The new light box with Direct Backlit LED Array technology is installed in the 3D theater and replaces two older fluorescent light boxes. The 2”-deep LED light box provides powerful performance, enhanced illumination and ease of use, while also offering space-saving capabilities because of the narrow profile. LEDs are solid-state light engines that last from 50,000 to 100,000 hours, compared to T-8 fluorescent lamps that only last from 8,000 to 20,000 hours. LED-illuminated light boxes deliver four times greater energy efficiency than fluorescent light boxes, and enable users to qualify for energy and tax rebates.

The energy-saving technology, lower maintenance costs and extreme durability of LEDs decrease CO2 emissions, reduce the associated carbon footprint and help protect the environment to ensure a stable climate for future generations. The use of LEDs helps to save the environment and reduce the carbon footprint of the light box.
