These are only estimates, based on information provided by multiple vendors.
Actual results will vary, based on specifics of the sign, including location, transformer load, quality of
primary voltage, quality of neon manufacturing, avg temp., etc. This does not
take into account color/brightness differences, upfront costs of
manufacturing and installation, and ongoing maintanance/possible repair
costs.
