MicroLite™...FIBEROPTIC ILLUMINATION SYSTEM
 
MicroLite is a revolutionary and patented fiberoptic illumination system ideal for small plate sized and even larger reverse channel letters. Our patented light delivery process provides uniform and brilliant halo or face-lit illumination. U.L. Approved, Low Voltage, Pre-assembled, Easy to Install and Maintenance Free MicroLite creates a brilliant isolated halo for letters as small as 2" in height and 1/4" in depth. We offer two completely pre-assembled, easy to install systems. Our Ready Mount system includes the dimensional letters/logos with all the fiber optics preinstalled into the letters. Installation requires drilling of stud locations and in most cases, a single penetration point for flexible fiberoptic cable. Our Panel Mount system features letters and dimensional graphics with preinstalled fiber optics which are then mounted onto a background, which can be supplied by you or by U.S. Sign. In either case, you are provided with a complete sign that is ready to be installed.
