LEDtronics relights the iconic Vincent Thomas Los Angeles Harbor Bridge - San Pedro CA

10:30 AM | Posted by LEDtronics, Inc. | | Edit Post


LEDtronics felt privileged to be apart of the project to light the Vincent Thomas Los Angeles Harbor Bridge in San Pedro CA, because it was an amazing example of community commitment and love for its city. The grass-roots campaign began in 1988 when local community members came together to raise money in order to beautify the bridge and create an iconic gateway to the Port of Los Angeles.

After years of various obstacles, LEDtronics invited the committee members to come to LEDtronics and learn about LED lighting and the benefits that LED lighting offered.  It became clear that LEDtronics could offer a solution with its ability to design and manufacture a product for their specific application needs and that LED lights were the best solution. LEDtronics presented a customized fixture design and the color blue was selected in order to stand out against the marina and night skyline.

A total of 160 fixtures were installed, 80 on the suspension cables and 80 on the deck of the bridge. Each fixture would use a maximum of 19.5 watts, significantly less than if conventional incandescent or HID bulbs had been used. Solar panels were contributed by LADWP and placed in their Mojave Solar Farm to offset line voltage power drawn from the grid to power the LED fixtures. In essence the LED fixtures are indirectly powered by Solar power based on the cooperation extended by LADWP.

The city and community benefitted by the use of LEDtronics LEDs:
  • ·        A new visually appealing Port of Los Angeles landmark
  • ·        Savings through lower wattage energy reduction
  • ·        Reduced light pollution and light intrusion into residence
  • ·        50,000+ hour life-span to save on maintenance costs




The illuminated bridge was a success that pleased the city, community and tourist population. It has now become the catapult for a greater scale effort to transform the waterfront into a dynamic area for both leisure and industry.

LEDtronics has been “Creating the Future of Light Since 1983 providing energy efficient and environmentally friendly LED lighting products to customers. Through our innovative skills, we are able to address customers’ specific needs and provide expert technical assistance.
