I believe we should strive for more efficient lighting solutions in schools but I do also have a concern that mandating changes too fast and the hype that surrounds this issue may result in the wrong implementation of lighting solutions and in sacrifices in light quality that I believe is so important to our well being. It takes time for new technologies to mature and to be fully understood by the professionals like lighting designers, electrical engineers, architects, interior designers and the public in general. It takes time to experience the new lighting solutions in order to implement them correctly into our schools, homes and other lighting projects. Caution needs to be practiced in banning traditional light sources and time needs to be given for the industry to transition so that our future does not look like those futuristic movies that show cold dark streets and spaces with blue green fluorescent or neon lights.

In response to your inquiry, yes, we do offer exterior lighting technologies. The lighting boasts the same 50 percent energy reduction guarantee as our interior lighting when replacing high-intensity discharge lighting. At the same time, our outdoor lighting provides approximately 50 percent more light than HIDs and significantly reduces your carbon footprint. To see the press release announcing our outdoor lighting, click <a href="http://www.oriones.com/download.php?f=88&c=1" rel="nofollow">here</a>, or, to view case studies about the exterior lighting, click <a href="http://www.oriones.com/case_studies.php?case=14" rel="nofollow">here</a>. Thanks again for your interest! Kevin Hi Bob, thanks for your comment and interest in Orion Energy Systems.
