If you want lower energy bills AND better lights, you need to upgrade to LEDs of course. Payback is a simple calculation that determines, based on the savings, how long it will take you to recoup your investment.

Understanding Light Spacing

About the spacing. Another problem that most people have to face is how many lights should be installed on a pole.One of the questions that people ask when installing LED lights is related to spacing. Spacing depends on how high up you go. The higher up you go, the bigger the fixture you can use and the farther spaced out you will be. Be careful because going higher can leave a lot of light up high and you can run into code issues, wind problems etc.
