Let’s face it, you’ve probably never thought of your office lighting as an expense. After all, you need the lights on to be able to see to do your work, right?

The sad truth is that you’ve been spending too much money on lighting, which is in most cases T12 or T8 fluorescent lighting. These outdated and inefficient lighting technologies have been phased out of production by the U.S. government.

Why? Well, probably because they simply cost too much money. And, because you’re probably like most small business owners who have no idea how much money is spent on lighting costs over time, we will share something pretty shocking with you:

Your T12 or T8 Lighting Costs You $40,000 Dollars

Our chart below shows the cost of lighting a total of 100 T12 and T8 fluorescent light fixtures, using standard hours of operations and average power costs.

The money adds up! Over 10 years you’ll spend nearly $40,000 dollars to keep T8 fluorescent light fixtures lit, and almost $43,000 dollars if you have older T12 fluorescent light fixtures!
