More often than not, that enforcer for quality control most likely will only show up quarterly or yearly. American companies who have gone to Chinese plants for production for decades.think "Engineered In America, Made In China" philosophy has always resulted in playing musical chairs because unless you have an engineer, someone you can trust to watch these plants and observe or conduct your own quality control on a daily basis, more often than not things get changed up to cut costs. Sometimes I get people asking me why I say "NOT made in CHINA!!!" on a lot of our advertising when it comes to products we distribute on the Sign Syndicate like our infamous NC LED's.Ĭhina manipulates their currency which provides a disadvantage when it comes to trade, it's unfair, unequal trade. I would like to share a document with you I was recently given, somethings are debatable in some issues but a good chunk should be payed attention too. Less hassle, their now more confident in the end products they sell, and their customers are excited about the Bright finished product that displays their identity / branding at night.įor more Product info on our Reckless LED line:įor all Sales & Inquiry you can contact us at (858) 880-1400, or by email MADE IN CHINA!!" THIS LOGO HAS NEVER LOOKED THIS BRIGHT BEFOREĪ Lot of our sales come from Sign Shops who's products have failed them in the past, and they've never been happier since making the switch to our NC Reckless LED line. THERE IS ONE OTHER LETTER RETROFIT FROM OVER A YEAR AGO USING OUR RECKLESS.CAN YOU FIND IT? HARD TO SHOW WITH A IPHONE SHOT, BUT IN REAL TIME THE DIFFERENCE IS DRASTIC. REPLACING CHINA WITH OUR NC RECKLESS LED'S. Eventually and soon, all these letters will have to be replaced because the catastrophic failure is coming! Constant Current NOT Constant Voltage, Brighter true white 6500K and most importantly high quality standards because their NOT made in CHINA.Įnd result, Brighter and Even illumination at night and NO return trips for a Loooooong time.
With all the benchmark testing we have done here on the Sign Syndicate we know what the Chinese LED modules measure up, and what we can expect from our NC Reckless LED's. Those savings turned into high Sign Repair costs and headache for repairs needed quite often for these Highway viewable signs that leaves this establishment a black eye.
Well.after the original signs company who installed this set pulling out the original JS LED modules, replacing with their newer, then another company replacing the individual JS LED failures with another Chinese LED.JT LED modules. This is one of those jobs where the client was sold on "Energy Efficiency" and "Saving" over Neon, which was the light source on their previous Channel Letter set. Please call 86 or send resume to: so many re-re-retrofit jobs using failing or inferior Chinese LED products it's time to just cut their cord, untwist the wire connectors and disconnect the problem and replace with a superior LED product NOT made in CHINA!!!Īnd of course I'm talking about our "Reckless" LED line by NC LED. Normal business hours are from 7AM – 3:30 however this position requires occasional overtime. May be willing to train the right candidate with limited experience. Experience in the production and manufacturing of electric signs of various types. Operation of various shop equipment including brakes, shears, drill presses, radial arm saws, etc. LED’s, fluorescent lamp fixtures, neon, etc. Aluminum, steel, and plastic fabrication. Our ideal candidate should possess understanding of basic sign fabrication, manufacturing, and construction methods along with a broad knowledge of industry materials, finishes, and processes. Quality Sign Crafters is seeking an experienced fabricator to join our team. Just like the allanson trans thread I dont give a rip about the transformer cost I acre about the service call cost and my rep as a wholesale builder. I only buy LED's and electric parts from someone who can and will either replace or will be writing checks to fix the problem. Kind of like buying a rolex out of a guys trunk at the gas station. When it was time to start getting warranty and replacements the company did nothing leaving him to replace it all 600+k worth out of pocket. Lastly when this fails how do the get warranty replacements? I know of a company no longer in business that did a massive change over and 3 months later it had over a 80 percent failure rate. On a side note LED's that have the "circuit board" look always look cheap to me and not really a sign component.
We caulk the seams between the returns and backs for both clinched or welded letters. We also silicone every LED on both sides as its possible for the vhb tape to fail. Id call it hack if they didnt use silicone. For the record, we also put silicone on each led module along with the provided VHB tape.
