What is Neon, Really?
A neon light is a glass tube containing neon, argon or krypton which is at low pressure. The opposite ends of this glass tube are made up of metal electrodes. When you use high voltage for the electrodes, the neon gas will ionize and it will cause electrons to flow through. Such electrons will ignite the neon atoms and this makes for the birth of the neon light. The aforementioned process is the process for emitting red neon light. For other colors, other gases will have to be used. Also, a neon light is usually made up of long and narrow glass tubes (often bent to form letters or images) but a fluorescent light is just one glass tube which has a "standard" size and it just flows through a straight tube. But you don't really wanna use fluorescent for advertising, do you?
Is Neon Really For You?
Why of course! Neon light is easily visible. When you talk about eye-catching, neon lights will surely top anyone's list. If your business opens during the night, it is most useful that you get something which can be easily seen from afar. Moreover, neon signs are pretty common. When people see a neon sign, they will automatically assume that it's a business; that it's some form of an advertisement. So neon signs already have a place in a consumer's mind. (Saves time for establishing seller/prospect customer rapport building.) Meaning, if something is in neon, something is (supposed to be) for sale. Lastly, neon signs are very cheap and it's easy to find them! In fact, it is advised that you look through the Internet for design choices. Usually there are hundreds of designs ready-made and there are also a lot of suppliers which cater to customized neon signs.
