Customized LED neon signs: LED neon vs. glass signs – 4 reasons to switch to modern lighting

Traditional glass neon lights have a nostalgic charm, but in 2025 their fragile tubes, high consumption and high maintenance will not stand up economically or environmentally. Modern custom LED neon signs provide the same – often more pronounced – luminosity, while consuming a fraction of the energy and allowing virtually any LED neon sign to be shaped. Thanks to more than a decade of experience at family-owned LoveLEDneon.cz, we’ll show you why LED technology outperforms traditional glass in key ways – and why the switch is paying off now.

  • Up to 80% less consumption* – saving money and the planet. Read more about their energy efficiency here.
  • Lifetime 50 000 + h – once installed, years of light
  • Glass-free, durable construction – safe for children, indoors and outdoors
  • Unlimited shapes, 11 colours + RGB animation – we turn every idea into light

1. Energy efficiency & long lifetime

Glass neons run on 10,000-15,000 volts of ionized gas – expensive and inefficient. Custom LED neon signs or given flex tubes run on 12-24V, use up to 80% less energy and last ten times longer (50,000 hrs+), so they save on maintenance too.

  • Low heat loss – does not heat up even after all night operation
  • Less load on the mains – ideal for a mobile food-truck or Christmas stand

2. Safety & durability

Custom LED neon signs are made of flexible silicone, contain no mercury or glass, and can withstand impact, UV rays, freezing and high temperatures. Low voltage eliminates the risk of electric shock.

  • Optional IP65 protection – suitable for outdoors
  • The surface is heated to a maximum of ≈ 45 °C
  • No shrapnel or toxic gases on impact
