New LED Lighting Control System Technology is changing the way we 
"flip the switch” - 
Your traditional wall mounted light switch and how you manage your power is all about to change….

Lighting pioneer, Jim Helmer agreed to install the first LUXERA SmartSwitch™ LED Power Management with Digital Control and Automation Capabilities system in his office.  

"When I served as Director of Transportation for the City of San Jose, our agency was a leader in the conversion of incandescent traffic signal heads to LED, and installing some of the first "adaptive" LED street-lighting systems in the nation. Now, as President of LightMoves, I am witnessing firsthand the ease of control, uniform & flicker-free lighting levels and 80% energy savings of the indoor LUXERA DC lighting solution on an existing AC circuit”
