Now is an excellent time to install LED lighting
because of the rebates that are available. Your
utility provider is offering assistance for commercial
properties like yours to decrease your electric
usage and convert to LED lights. A typical
rebate can reduce your cost about 33 – 50%
of the bulbs and fixtures. Also, municipalities
are also encouraging businesses to reduce their
energy consumption and offering additional
rebates towards the purchase and installation.
For more information, visit your utility provider
and city’s website to learn how you can benefit from
the energy rebates or

A recent retrofit upgrade
envi ultra lounge
Racine, WI – Doug Nicholson, owner of envi ultra lounge, recently switched
Annual energy
from halogen lighting to Ohyama Lights to reduce his operation costs, be
savings of $3,673
“green” and eliminate constant maintenance. He is now on pace to save
$26,832.41 after five years of installing LED lights by Ohyama Lights.
The upscale lounge opened its doors in 2009 after a complete overhaul of the three-story 100+ year-old
building and features a modern, dynamic cuisine and specialty drinks with
83% decrease in fresh juices and herbs. Nicholson wanted to create a destination that used
lighting costs environmental-friendly materials that were long-lasting and reduced waste.
The vision became reality and patrons are marveling at the smart design while
Nicholson is experiencing reduced energy costs.
Before switching to Ohyama Lights’ LED lamps, envi ultra lounge was using 26,498 kilowatts of power
each year for lighting. Today, envi ultra lounge only uses 4,619 kilowatts, an 83% decrease. This resulted
in an annual energy savings of $3,673 ($0.146/kw). Nicholson understands that energy prices will
continue to increase. He realized now is the time to take advantage of energy
rebates from the local municipality and power supplier and make the investment 14 month payback
in LED lighting.
Another savings that envi ultra lounge is immediately experiencing is the time and cost of replacing
short-lived halogen bulbs. Nicholson has calculated that since the LED retro-fit, he is saving $798.58
each year and will see his return on investment (ROI) in 14 months*. Now ordering bulbs and paying
for costly installation is not a concern.
Lastly, Nicholson says that LED bulbs are enhancing envi ultra lounge’s atmosphere with its color and
dimming abilities. He is very pleased with the LED conversion and is planning on installing Ohyama Lights
in his two other establishments.
*ROI will vary and is based on local energy costs and rebates.
