| Florida Neon SignsNeon signs lit-up the 20th century, not only in places like Las Vegas, but also in cities like Florida and others. The neon sign idea initially came from France about 10 years before the 1st-commercial neon-sign appeared in America. However, neon signs popularity reached its peak in 1940s. Today, Neon signs have many uses, below are some of them: Individual and commercial businesses can use neon-signs to draw attention and get customers for their businesses. Exterior neon signs can spell-out the business' or company's name in lights or it can also display an image which tells passersby and customers something about the company or business. For example, a big ice-cream cone can be displayed in a Neon sign for an ice-cream shop business based in Jacksonville, Florida thus getting the attention of the passersby, or a neon fish-shape for a seafood restaurant located in Miami, Florida. Some neon-signs can do both. For example, it can display a dripping neon-faucet with the business name appearing inside the faucet's outline. Although most neon signs are usually located outside a business which offers that displayed brand, for example, old neon signs situated near gas-stations in Fortlauderdale, Florida advertising a particular brand of gas, that is not always the case. Neon signs can also be huge billboards or flashing a brand-name or a logo from a location like Orlando, Florida.

About Neon Signs: Historically, it was only neon that was used in neon-signs, hence name "Neon-signs." Neon is a colorless, tasteless, odorless, and inert noble gas. It makes up about a fraction of all the air that you breathe. It is the most common type of gas used for signs. It gives off a strong-red glow. Usually, only small amounts of neon are required to make a neon-sign. While the neon-sign fixtures use high-voltages, the power consumption is usually very low, in the milli-watts, making neon signs very energy efficient. Neon has an atomic-number of 10 and it's the second lightest noble-gas, after helium.If placed in vacuum and then subjected to high voltage current, neon will glow a bright red orange. In most modern-neon signs, a mixture-of neon and argon is used to make a wider-spectrum of colors. Neon-signs are made-by using electrified-luminous tube lights which contain rarefied-neon with or without other gases.The neon-sign is an advancement of earlier Geissler-tube, which was an electrified-glass tube which contained a "rarefied-gas" (meaning, the gas-pressure is below the atmospheric-pressure). When a high voltage is run through the electrodes that have been inserted in the glass-tube, an electrical-glow discharge results. In the year 1923 Earle-C. Anthony bought the 1st commercial-neon-sign for his car dealership business. Since then, neon-signs have become among some of the most prominent-features in places like Las Vegas, Florida and Time Square, New York . Neon signs are typically created using 4 elements in different varying proportions. These proportions depend on the desired-color of the sign. We use light emitting tubes to form colored-lines with which we can write word texts or even draw pictures. We can also include various different decorations on the neon sign especially for commercial-signage use and advertising. By using programming sequences to switch some parts off and on, we can make different dynamic light-patterns that form animated-images. |
