MaxCo. has just completed a major electrical installation
at the Rentisham's Headquarters.
In order to be Environmentally Eco-green, the wise souls at
Rentishams have had all of their office lights replaced with
LED bulbs - they were quite astonished by the technology,
and don't even seem
to mind the increased expenditure on
heating to make up for the 32kW formerly provided by the
old lighting system.
One of the great things about LEDs is that they don't mind
being switched on and off (and then on again) repeatedly
and rapidly, as long as those two operations are performed
in alternation. This fact, plus a little Bluetoothery, has
enabled us to provide Rentishams with an out-of-hours
message display system. By co-ordinating the offing and
onning of the lights in multiple offices (the typing pool
alone occupies three floors), the entire building can be
made to display gigantuous scrolling messages, such as
"WELCOME BACK BOFFO", "ONLY THE BEST CARNAUBA" or
"ALWAYS THE FULL EFFECT".
Best of all, Rentishams now earns a substantial
supplementary income through the use of a telegraphy
service that allows users to access the system such that,
for a fee, their own messages can be displayed in 49ft
letters.
