4. Incandescent light bulbs
– heats a filament
Fluorescent or neon
tubes
– charges a gas field
LED - light emitting diode
Unlike Conventional Lighting Methods

5. forges the “power” of electroluminescence and durability of steel
Light is produced when phosphor crystals are exited by
a voltage between two conductive layers, or electrodes
Electroluminescence (EL) is an optical and electrical phenomenon that
produces light in response to the passage of an electric current, typically on
thin film
Our patent pending technology applies EL to steel production
for unparalleled industrial applications

6. “Light Pollution”
Visibility poor
LED damages easily
Radiation, toxicity
Heat

7. Unique Properties
• No reflecting light source – light comes from charge to steel
• Automatically adjusts light output for maximum visibility / battery efficiency
• “Cold” – non-heat lighting
• No ultraviolet radiation
• Non-glare favorable to the human eye
• Highly visible - typical SEL street sign can be seen and read for over two
miles (2 to 5 times greater than with “point light” sources, e.g. bulbs, LED)
• Highly visible in obstructed environments, i.e., smoke, fog
Durability
• Battery power, Nickel Metal Hydride (NiHM)- 5,000mAh, lifespan over three
years (est.)
• Ability to withstand heat and cold (extreme conditions -100 ~ 200)
• Anti-erosion, salt, acid, alkali, humidity
• Can easily endure high surface forces
• Essentially maintenance-free

upon request

8. Sustainability
• May be solar powered
• Retrofits any existing sign, i.e., street and highway signs
• More than 200,000 lifetime hours compared to LED 15,000 hours
• Low power consumption (90% less power than traditional lighting,
50% less than LED)
• Installation costs 30% less than LED
• Low maintenance - No bulbs needed or needed to be replaced
Environmentally-friendly – Safety benefits
• Free from ultraviolet radiation, which potentially harms animals
• Heightens driver awareness, increased visibility at high incident
intersections, keeping drivers and pedestrians safe
• 53% reduction of intersection blow-through (est.), keeping drivers alert
• Multiple signs can be synchronized
*
* Estimates based on current research; independent laboratory testing is currently being conducted

9. SEL Street Signs
Steel Electroluminescence (S.E.L.) makes roads safer
reducing accidents and saving lives

14. Even the iconic Hollywood Sign can be lit with S.E.L.
Environmentally-friendly
Ameliorates neighborhood concerns
Visible and readable from
great distances, including from planes landing into Los
Angeles

15. ALL our applications can be powered with Solar
Especially critical in power-challenged environments,
such as Africa or disruptions to the grid
