LED writing board
Fluorescent Ink Menu Boards are reusable writing surfaces on which advertising and messages are made with fluorescent marker pens. They are also called:
- LED Writing Boards
- Multi Color Neon LED Menu Board
- Multi Color Neon LED Message Board
- Flashing LED board
- Illuminated Menu Board
- Fluorescent Menu Board
- Fluorescent Signage
Content is handwritten on the glass or acrylic surface. Pens are available in many colors. Content can be removed by wiping the surface with a cloth eraser.
Fluorescent ink in the markers fluoresces and scatters the light. The light transmission through the markers creates a bright and colorful display. The most common illumination source for "Fluorescent Ink Menu Boards" is now LED. LED's commonly have a half-life (to 1/2 brightness) of 50,000 hours. Previous models commonly used fluorescent or halogen illumination.
This type of message board uses a small number of low-power LED's for illumination. Fluorescent Ink Menu Boards typically have a black background that allows the fluorescent ink to stand out with little illumination. These factors together result in a small power requirement even compared to LED Marquee style message boards.
