Go Green Solutions recently completed an installation of 4- foot LED fluorescent-replacement tubes in the parking garage of a mixed-use complex in Pasadena. These tubes use 11.6 watts compared to the 32 watts the existing T8 fluorescents used.
This LED Lighting project is saving the building $1,438 per year, while providing better light and reducing
