My family and I own a small coffee shop, and we decided to do minor renovations to further improve the place. One of the things we decided to add is a LED sign we can use outdoors to attract customers. We wanted a programmable one to change the message every now and then, and it won’t appear monotonous to our everyday customers. So we bought this one-row scrolling LED sign from an online store called AffordableLED.com.

This one-row programmable LED sign from Affordable LED features remote programming, making it easier for a non-techy person like me to learn how to use it. It has this feature called VERSA, which allows you to easily program the message you want to show on the LED sign. It is also quick to install thanks to its flexible mounting system. I can simply hang it on our shop’s window or as we’d like to mount it outside where customers can easily see it upon passing by our shop.

Here are its general specifications:

• Pitch: 20 mm
• Brightness: ≥ 5200 nits
• Color: Tri-Color
• Lifespan: 100,000 hrs
• Viewing Angle: 140° Horizontal, 70° Vertical
• Operating Temperature: -20° F to 140°F
• Humidity Range: 5% to 95%

The best thing about this programmable LED sign is that it offers 3-Year Limited Warranty. It features a Samsung CPU, an Aluminum Back Cover, a 1/4 Module, and an Extended Receiving Sensor. It also comes with a Polycarbonate Grill and a Silicon Coating for protection. Plus, this whole programmable LED sign only costs $785, which is a great deal considering its use and functions.

Aside from this one, Affordable LED has other programmable LED signs you can choose from. They are the leading LED manufacturer in Southern California and have been in the business since 1990. They have been supplying quality outdoor and indoor signage to regional sign companies and sign shops across the U.S., so you can be sure that you are buying quality signage from them!
