FAQ

What is Neon?

Neon is just amazing. There are neon particles in the very air we breath. In a nutshell, a neon light is a vacuum sealed tube filled with a mixture of rare gas. Electrodes at each end send a high voltage current through the tube which excites the neon gas so much that it starts to glow.

Are Neon signs dangerous?

Yes and no. Like all electrical appliances they need to be treated with an amount of safety and common sense. Glass is a natural insulator so you won’t get a shock from touching tubes directly, but with that being said NEVER, EVER touch an exposed wire. We expertly manufacture our signs to the highest standards, but it’s very important to observe standard electric safety regardless. If for whatever reason your sign breaks or stops working, unplug and get in touch with us. All of our products
