The latest generation of LED digital message signs are extremely bright and they need to be regulated but the user in order to prevent distractions for night time drivers.
West Cost Signs recently installed a double faced 16mm Clearview LED sign in Clearwater, FL on busy Hwy 19. The sing looks great during normal daylight hours but is much too bright in the evening. Fortunately, the sign is equipped with an auto dimmer which is a photocell that detects the outside ambient light and dims or brightens the sign accordingly. The sign now runs at 30% brightness during the evening and about 80% brightness during the day.
The benefits of using the auto dimmer feature on your sign included 1. Fewer motorist complaints 2. Less power usage 3. extends the life of the digital led sign.

Digital technology’s marriage to billboards is one providing countless benefits to diverse groups of consumers. There are hundreds of digital billboards in the United States, and that number is expected to grow by several hundred over the next few years.

This nimbleness gives local businesses a unique and powerful way to reach a large number of geographically targeted consumers very quickly.

When purchasing an LED Message Center, you're often faced with options that include different "pixel pitches". Don't get confused....pixel pitch basically describes the density of the LED pixels on the message system. The more dense, the higher the resolution and the more data you can display.
When talking about pixel pitch, please remember that the lower the number, the higher the screen resolution. For instance, a 14mm screen has much more resolution than a 20mm screen. The reason for this inverse relationship is that pixel pitch is the measurement from the center of one pixel to the center of the neighboring pixel on your screen. The smaller the distance, the tighter the resolution.
This chart will give you some general ideas on pitch.
