GRTV goes LED!

GRTV goes LED!

GRTV is excited to announce the studio switchover to LED lighting is complete!  We've replaced 15 halogen studio lights with 8 LED Elation TVL3000's.  These new lights are 70Watts total power consumption at full output, whereas the halogens used 1000Watts. Along with saving energy, we will also be saving on bulb replacements.  These units have 50,000 hours estimated LED life.

This is one of many upgrades to come in the GRTV studio; next time you're in, check them out!
