Some of his major accomplishments at ImagePoint involve the conversion of signage programs for large, multi-national brands from traditional lighting sources to LED lighting. Lester recognized early on the advantages of solid state lighting and has consistently been a champion of LED technology throughout his career.
With LED lighting rapidly replacing conventional light sources in most channel letter applications, sign manufacturers and distributors are turning to Permlight for Signs to help meet demand for energy-efficient, environmentally friendly sign lighting solutions that produce brighter, longer lasting and more affordable signs. Lester's appointment is part of Permlight for Signs' strategic growth plan to offer customer industry-leading products and service.
