. "Our LED light replaces standard, 100 watt High Pressure Sodium luminaires and consumes half the energy," said Mr. Mullins. "There is no bulb replacement for 50,000 hours or more than 10 years. We have a sealed light engine that has no air intake and never needs internal cleaning. IntenCity Lighting has a unique, integral down-looking photocell photocell: see photoelectric cell.

 that requires no opening in the housing, no wiring, and outlasts the LEDs themselves. Essentially we have developed a maintenance free, outdoor lighting fixture that has no ballast or bulb. As an added benefit, our lights have sharp optical cutoffs and are international, dark sky compliant."

Mr. Bruck said that unit costs for the light is $405 in small quantities. "We have calculated the pay-back to the municipalities to be about 3.5 years depending upon their energy costs. We have a municipal leasing program that makes it economically feasible for almost any city to convert to this new technology."

"Our light weighs about 15 lbs and is extremely is easy to mount," commented Mr. Mullins. "We have developed a unique pipe mounting requiring no saddle clamps or bolts to torque. The fixture coupling slips into a standard pipe and expands for a secure, weather tight seal."

There are an estimated 10 million 100 watt, high pressure sodium street lights in the U.S. alone. "Of course GE and Sylvania and others, are working to develop similar technology," said Mr. Mullins, "Many of these companies are in the design and test stages of product development. From what I've seen, our product outshines anything out there in the market now or under development. We're first to market with a truly viable LED street light product."
