Qnuru LED Lighting Becomes De Facto Standard for Green Auto Dealers

"LED lighting allows progressive auto dealers to drive down operating expenses, present their cars in the best light, and contribute to the greening of their local community," said Ravi Chiruvolu, President Industry Solutions for Noribachi, Qnuru's parent company. "Dealers employ sharp pencils when it comes to investing in their facilities; they understand that radically reducing their lighting and maintenance expenses by 80% with a quick ROI is simple math."

"Of all the environmental projects we have undertaken, from reducing water and laying green flooring, to installing solar panels and turning off computers at night, nothing compares to LED lighting in terms of an economic return," said Mike Sullivan, owner of LAcarGUY, the No. 1 hybrid dealer in the world. "The savings are large and quantifiable." Sullivan retrofitted his Lexus Santa Monica dealership with Qnuru's Vector line of LED bulbs. "We are saving money, making our neighbors happier and, most importantly, delivering on our commitment to lead our industry into a greener automotive future."

Qnuru offers the widest spectrum of LED applications for auto dealers in the industry, ranging from Vector LED retrofit solutions for high intensity discharge fixtures to Prism LED screw-in replacements for incandescent and compact fluorescent lamps. Vector retrofit LED bulbs provide daylight-quality illumination, are installable by a licensed electrician in less than 20 minutes, and carry a Noribachi-backed five-year warranty. Qnuru's Prism bulbs come with a three-year warranty. Vector and Prism LED solutions are UL Listed, ETL Certified, and designed, assembled, and tested in the U.S.

Qnuru retrofitted Emich VW of Denver's exterior 1000 watt parking lot lights and 400 watt high bay interior service department fixtures with LED technology. "Because our old service bay lights cast a yellow haze, we frequently had to drive cars outside into the sunlight in order to ensure we had caught all the nicks and dents," said Fred Emich, fourth generation dealer-principal at Emich VW. "With Qnuru's LED lighting, my guys can now see the imperfections just as if the cars were sitting in the noontime sun." Added Richard Boch, co-owner of Expressway Toyota who retrofitted his urban Boston dealership with Qnuru LED bulbs, "It's like bringing the sunshine inside."
