LCMS vs. Timers
- Timers are only right the day you set them
- Every day the sunrise and sunset times are changing but your timer is stuck with the old settings
- Our LCMS (Lighting Control and Monitoring Service) automatically adjusts everyday to the new sunrise/sunset times
- With timers, you have to send someone to manually adjust them for daylight savings time changes.
- Our LCMS automatically adjusts for daylight savings time changes
- If the power goes out, you have to send someone to reset the timer
- Our LCMS automatically adjusts itself to the correct time and schedule after a power outage
- With timers, you may not have any idea that the power went out
- Our LCMS sends you a power out notification via text and email
- If someone fails to reset the timer, you could have a dark parking lot and get sued
- Our LCMS reduces liability risk because it automatically adjusts to your schedule
- With timers, if you want to change your lighting schedule you have to send someone to do it (how much does that cost?)
- With our LCMS, you can adjust your schedule over the internet or we can do it for you for free!
- If your timer fails, you have to buy a new one
- Our LCMS has a lifetime warranty and 24/7 free customer support
- With timers you have no idea how long your lights have been on each day
- With our LCMS and “echo” website you can download all of your runtimes
- Your timers are wasting money and electricity every day
- Our LCMS saves money and electricity every day (usually way more than the cost of the LCMS!)
- Your timers are shortening the life of your bulbs and ballasts by running them too long every day
- Our LCMS lengthens the life of your bulbs and ballasts by around 20% or more
- Longer bulb and ballast life means less labor costs to replace them
- With timers you have to constantly be worried about making sure they are not screwing up
