5 Year <sup>$</sup>0 Cost LED Sign Warranty

Don't be dependent on a company in China building a stock sign then shipping it overseas to your business. Typical shipping timeframes from China are 4 months, quality control is nonexistent, even simple matters (software, setup, training, simply getting the order right) are exacerbated when dealing with a third party. Plus, the wear-and-tear on signs shipped overseas is tremendous!

There are 3 different designs of LED Signs manufactured; the Classic Pixel-cluster design, Balanced Array, and SMD LED technology. Which one is best? It depends.

Sunburst LED Signs

We manufacture of all 3 designs. This website explains the differences, but come to our Showroom and we’ll help you decide which is perfect for your needs.

Sunburst LED Signs™ also guarantees that our price will be the lowest price you can obtain on the products described in this website; now or anytime during the next 90 days.

If you are offered a lower price by someone else we will match that lower price PLUS give you 10% of the difference.

Frequently Asked Questions About Programmable LED Signs


What are programmable LED signs?

Programmable LED signs are LED infused signs that can display dynamic photos, video, etc. for businesses, yielding unparalleled advertising results.

How do programmable LED signs work?

These signs are programmed by sending "slides" from a computer to the sign, then the sign displays the slides in a very similar fashion to a PowerPoint presentation. The sign has a processor and components that tells each individual LED on the sign what they need to do in order to render those "slides" properly.

Can I customize the content on my LED sign regularly?

The LED sign can be updated every few minutes, pre-programmed with messages to display at certain times, display time and temperature information, photos and videos, and has many other capabilities. It can even display a website!

What types of messages or content can be displayed on programmable LED signs?

There are a huge variety of options. Most commonly businesses display JPG or WMV files but the signs support a large variety of file formats in addition to streaming data from the internet (if the sign is connected to the customer's internet service).

Are programmable LED signs suitable for both indoor and outdoor use?

Yes. However, these signs are built for outdoor visibility which means they are significantly brighter and more durable than something used for indoor purposes, such as a television. While a television is fine when viewed indoors it is simply not sufficient to be noticed in the Sun from traffic viewing distances (typically over 40' away).

How bright are programmable LED signs, and are they visible during the day and night?

Sunburst LED Signs are designed for outdoor visibility and durability. They are very bright, but also have a sensor to reduce the illumination when it gets dark outside to avoid the sign being "too" bright to be read. They can be programmed to be brighter or dimmer, to fit any requirement. They also have a failsafe so that even if a light is shining on the sensor at night the sign will still dim down as needed.

What is the lifespan of programmable LED signs?

Typical life for an LED sign is over 15 years, but it varies by use. LEDs do not "go out" like a regular lightbulb. They dim over time. After 15 years of constant use the LEDs in a programmable LED sign are still lighting and advertising but they're getting to the point that the owner may want to consider replacing them. We offer solutions that will completely replace the LEDs in the sign after 15 years (or 20, 25, 30, whatever the customer chooses) without having a large expense at the end of the lifespan.

What color options are available for LED signs?

The LEDs display full color, but we can custom paint the sign frame any color the customer chooses.

Do you offer different sizes and resolutions for programmable LED signs?

Yes. Signs Manufacturing offers a large variety and our showroom is the perfect place to help decide which one is right for you.

Can I schedule messages to appear at specific times on my LED sign?

Absolutely. You can program messages for certain times, certain days, stop/start, etc. Sunburst LED Signs' system is designed so that you don't have to spend your time updating your sign. Set it once, then let it do the work for you!

Do you provide software for programming LED signs, and is it user-friendly?

Yes, we have several options for you. Our primary programming option is over the cloud by simply logging in to a website (either using your building's network or a cellular network), telling the sign what you want it to display, then logging off. You can do that from anywhere that has an internet connection. Alternatively, we can provide software so that you can open the software on a computer on your network, tell the sign what you want to display, then turn off the computer. Lastly, we can keep the sign entirely off your building's internet if you want to connect to the sign with a laptop and update it that way. Your Sales Representative will help decide what is the best option for you.

What is the energy efficiency of programmable LED signs?

These signs use shockingly little electricity. A 4'x8' full color sign only uses approximately 500 watts of power.

What is the cost of programmable LED signs?

Naturally the pricing varies dramatically depending on the size, resolution, etc. In 2024 the price can be as low as $12,000 (including cloud setup, wireless bridge, etc.)

Do you offer installation services for programmable LED signs?

Yes. We fabricate the sign in-house, perform the setup ourselves, installations, customer software training and more. We are a one-stop-shop and control every aspect of the project without any third-party markups.

Can you provide examples of businesses that have successfully used programmable LED signs?

Every day you see businesses with LED sign advertisements. The ability to dynamically change your message to people in your target market (the people around your business) is unparalleled in marketing. From restaurants showing specials, churches displaying welcome messages and service times, schools displaying important community messaging and even law firms displaying their successful events ... the opportunities to communicate positive messaging to your community/customers are endless!

>What are programmable LED signs, and how do they differ from traditional static business signs or other digital options like LCD screens?

Programmable LED signage takes a user's images, video, animations or text and dynamically displays it on the sign in a rapidly changeable manner. Using LEDs and pixels, the sign displays the businesses' message in a similar fashion to a television or a computer monitor. The dynamic nature of the signage, allowing for changing messages without delay, makes them a far superior advertising method for a business or a church.

What does "LED" stand for, and how do programmable LED signs work to display content?

LED stands for Light Emitting Diode. Each diode creates a color, generally red, green or blue. By combinding those colors you generate other colors, just like a computer monitor. A controller inside the sign takes the messages and determines which LED should light up, and how much, in order for the sign to reflect the correct image, video or text. Your Sign Expert at Signs Manufacturing can explain more and, in our sign showroom, let you see exactly how it all works.

What are the different types of programmable LED signs?

There's basically two types of technology on the market today: LED and SMD. Both have their place in signage. LEDs are brighter and work best for outdoor use. They also last longer and are more durable. SMDs are smaller, dimmer, but you can pack more of them into a smaller area. So, although each SMD may be smaller than their LED cousins, when you pack twice as many in there you can still achieve a very bright sign. Signs Manufacturing offers both technologies and our Sign Experts will determine which is ideal for your business signage.

Are monochrome programmable LED signs still effective for businesses, or should I opt for full-color digital LED signage?

In short ... get a full color sign. The monochrome signage is much less widely used anymore. Finding parts and even new suppliers for the technology is difficult as almost everybody has abandoned monochrome as the full color LED signage prices have come down.

Who can benefit most from using programmable LED signs for their business?

Any organization that wants to get a message across to the people in their area can greatly benefit from an digital LED sign. A church will frequently show welcome messages, sermon times, holiday greetings, locally targeted messages, etc. A retail business may show specials, store hours, products, etc. Even a lawyer's office can use programmable signs to show messages like awards, community involvement, etc. So, there is no organization that cannot make great use out of an electronic LED marquee sign.

What features do programmable LED signs offer for customization?

Digital marquee signs have a tremendous level of customization. For messages you can display images, text, videos, weather information and more. Scheduling messages for specific times lets you target political messaging, holiday greetings, cheering on the local football team, etc. Functionally you can customize the brightness of the sign, dimming it at specific times, turning it off (blank screen) when you need it, etc.

Changeable Message Signs - A Brief History


Digital Menu BoardsWhen LED lighting first replaced incandescent lighting in changeable message signs their color was monotone, and their array was balanced.

When color LEDs were introduced in the late 1990's existing computers could not coordinate the virtually unlimited display options a balanced array offered. This resulted in a very grainy� product. The 3 led colors (RGB) were therefore grouped into pixel clusters so that these classic computers could control the display, providing better results.

Outdoor LED SignsWe have come a long way; computers and processors are thousands of times faster than early models.

The technical ability to place larger individual LEDs closer together without electrical co-interference has greatly improved also. At the same time, the ability to place 3 small LEDs in a single lens evolves.

Sunburst LED Signs™ utilizes modern computing power to control the virtually limitless potential of our large LED Video Displays and Digital Electronic Message Center Signs.

The Most Cost-Effective Advertising You Can Do


How much would you invest to double your take-home pay?

The United State Small Business Administration (SBA) says that an LED message center sign in front of a business increases the store's sales volume 15-150%.

Outdoor LED SignageThis is all profit; expenses are already being paid.Digital LED Signage

Even with a 50% cost-of-goods this is an increase in take-home pay of 7.5% - 75%. Most businesses do not have this high a cost-of-goods.

Deduct from this amount the $10.25 per day it costs to both purchase and operate a 6'x 12' free-standing full-color LED message center sign that is installed 20' tall, paying off the loan in 6 years. After that, only deduct about $1.00 per day.

It's Black and White; what are your current sales? Do you want the additional income? Are you willing to invest $10.25 per day?

This is probably the safest investment in the world, with the highest potential return, for a business owner to make.

"In my previous 9 years of being in business I have never had 40 customers in a day. Since you put up my Sunburst' LED Display sign I have so-far averaged 53 customers per day, but my business is still growing again."�

Consider Your Competition


The nature of competition is that every competitor that buys a similar sign after you do will try to purchase one that is bigger and better.

Because of this, buy the latest technology and the biggest sign allowed by city ordinance.

Be very careful when picking your sign company. There are good ones out there, but there are far more "bargain basement" companies. Sometimes the cheapest bidder may be the best (banners, vinyl graphics, etc.) but this is not true with an LED Display.

Look at an excerpt from an article in Sign & Digital Graphics, a trade magazine, which gives advice to brokers who are purchasing this type of signage for resale:

You get what you pay for, and what seems like a smart savings upfront can turn into an expensive (and stressful) nightmare later on.

Look for a manufacturer whose signs have a reputation for durability and reliability. The manufacturers service staff should have an intimate knowledge of the sign manufacturing process, rather than those who simply read technical tips from a handbook.

Many overseas manufacturers do not produce stock parts and replacements can be very difficult or impossible to find. In tough times, you want an expert that lives and breathes the technology behind their product...

Why Buy Factory-Direct, and from a State-Licensed Company?


Pylon Sign with Full Color LED DisplayWhy not buy from a Sign Dealer (also called a Sign Broker, Car Wrap company or a Sign Store?) There are literally hundreds of them.

Would you give a car dealer $10,000 and tell him to buy you the best car he can for the money, sight unseen (or from a drawing?) Don't you think you would get the car that made him the most?

Do you think you could meet your needs asking for the cheapest car he can buy?

Why would a sign dealer (Car Wrap company or sign store) be any different? Remember, they are merely buying a sign from a manufacturer, maybe foreign, to resell to you, usually to resemble a drawing, making the most money they can.LED Billboard

You need to know ALL of the details on how your sign will be manufactured, and how it will be installed. It needs to meet YOUR needs, not the seller's profit goals. What is he telling the manufacturer you don't need so he can make more money?

Believing "...a sign is a sign" gets you a Yugo instead of a Cadillac. Remember the Yugo? They didn't last very long, either.

Also, most sign dealers, Car Wrap companies and sign stores cannot legally install or service an electric sign. Ask to see their license.

Ask to see a manufacturer's license also. A few are not licensed to do electrical work, either, they also have to hire other companies to install the signs they make.

Now, who provides the warranty? The manufacturer, the installer, the salesman, anyone? If the sign was installed illegally do you think they'll honor their warranty? Did they REALLY obtain your City sign permit? Is the sign even safe?

Plano TX LED Monument SignsAs a large, UL listed manufacturer, our name is on all our signs. Just like you, we can't afford to have a bad sign destroy our business. We have to care, particularly with our 5 Year $0 Cost Warranty and Lifetime Coverage*.

Talk to one of our LED Sign Experts for details.

If you wonder if a sign-seller can legally install and service electrical signs through-out Texas go to http://www.tdlr.texas.gov/LicenseSearch, enter "Electricians" in the "Inquire by License Type" box and the name of the sign business or person in the "Inquire by Name" box. If they are not licensed they can not.LED Message Board Sign

So someone can sell you signs and not be licensed to install or service them. You may have to have this done. But unless the electrical signs you buy are "listed" (U.L. usually) they won't be allowed to be installed in Texas, a State of Texas Consumer Protection Safety Law designed to insure that signs are safe to use, with a few local city ordinance exceptions. It is not illegal to sell them to you, however. Buy carefully.
