With energy prices remaining a concern for many households and businesses, it’s natural to wonder how much electricity a custom LED neon sign actually uses.

The good news is that Elite Vibe® LED neon signs are designed to be highly energy efficient. They consume significantly less power than traditional glass neon while delivering the same vibrant visual impact.

Low Running Costs

One of the biggest advantages of LED neon technology is its low energy consumption. Our signs are built using premium LED neon flex, allowing you to enjoy bright, eye-catching lighting without worrying about high electricity bills.

Most of our signs cost only a few pence per day to operate, even when used for several hours.

Example Energy Usage

The exact power consumption depends on the size and design of your sign, but here are some typical examples based on an average UK electricity rate of 28p per kWh.

Small Sign (Approximately 50cm)

• Average running cost: Less than 1 penny per hour
• Around 6–7 pence per day (based on 8 hours of use)
• Approximately £2 per month
• Around £22 per year

Medium Sign (Approximately 75cm)

• Average running cost: Around 1.5 pence per hour
• Approximately 11–12 pence per day (based on 8 hours of use)
• Around £3.50–£4 per month
• Approximately £42 per year

These figures are estimates and may vary depending on your sign’s design, transformer size, and local electricity rates.
