Neon lighting alternative

With the same appearance as traditional neon lighting, LED-Flex lights are UV-protected tubes lined with LED lamps for illumination. They require less energy and can be used in many applications where neon isn't appropriate. The tubes can bend 180∞, and can be custom cut and shaped on-site. The lights require as little as 1.92W of energy per foot and use a semi-conducting material that converts electricity directly into light. The solid state design enables the lights to withstand shock, vibration, frequent switching, and temperature and environmental extremes. They're available in red, green, blue, and yellow base colors and can be ordered in 30-ft, 24V and 150-ft, 120V lengths.

Custom van design software

Weather Guard Vehicle Solutions software allows users to custom-design work vans with shelving, cabinets, racks, and accessories. The 3-D software produces interactive graphics to help the user visualize the custom design prior to purchase, and it stops the user from configuring the van design with products that are inappropriate for a particular vehicle model. Users can conduct a “virtual walk-through” by zooming in and out, rotating and spinning the vehicle, and changing perspectives. Once the design is complete, it can be printed out along with a corresponding list of materials or uploaded to a local upfitter for an installation quote.
