Frequently asked about Illusionneon’s Product

For LED Neon Signs:
Are Your LED Lights Plug-in or Battery Operated?

Most of our neon artwork needs to be plugged into a power socket. However, for small designs and lamps, we offer battery packs. You are welcome to contact us and determine if your design is suitable for batteries. We do provide transparent cords on both the sign and AC adapters, so you will not notice them when mounted. Finally, we offer a free remote and dimmer with every order at checkout.

How Do I Hang or Mount my Sign?

Our signs weigh between 6 to 11 pounds and come with pre-drilled holes, making mounting simple. They are also easy to transport due to their lightweight. We offer kits to assist with the hanging. However, there are simple hardware tools you can use as well.

  • Fishing wire – we recommend heavy-duty and use fisherman knots
  • Rope – we recommend any secure knotting styles
  • Heavy-duty Removable Hooks – strongly suggested that you use multiple hooks to distribute the weight for a secure hold

*Please note – we strongly recommend our mounting kits, and we are not responsible for any damages that occur to your wall with mounting.

Are Free-Standing Signs Available?

Yes, we offer neon signs with a clear, acrylic box or a stand-style base instead of mounting on the wall.

What Backboard Options are Available?

We mount custom signs on an acrylic backboard based on the design you have selected. However, if you have a preference, we will consider that whenever possible. Our two most common options are cut to shape and rectangle cut. The cut to shape is often seen with cursive fonts, and basic fonts generally come with the rectangular backboard. We also use clear as our standard color, but we also offer black, white, gold, and metallic silver. If you are looking for a multi-color background, ask us about our UV printed background options.

Do I Need a Remote or Dimmer?

While not mandatory, all our signs automatically come with a remote and dimmer at checkout. These remotes allow you to adjust the brightness, offer a party mode (flashing lights), and turn the light on and off.

Why Do I See Small Marks on the Sign?

All of our LED lights are handmade, and the minor marks are glue holding the PVC tubing to the acrylic backboard. Once the light is turned on, it should not be visible.

Can I Use My Sign Outside?

Our standard signs are designed for indoor use only, as they are not watertight. However, if you can protect them from any exposure to moisture, you can use them anywhere. We also offer custom signs available for outdoor use, but you will need to let us know before production.

Can I Have a Partial Neon Sign?

Our company offers signs that are both UV and LED neon printed. We can create a custom sign that uses both styles for a look you desire.

For 3D Lamps:
How Do I Use my Lamp?

When you purchase our 3D lamps, we offer a video to show how to use them. There are buttons to power on and off, as well as switching between colors. You will need to either connect the lamp to a power source or use AA batteries (not included). It is strongly recommended that you remove any batteries in the light before plugging them in, or it may not work correctly.

Do the 3D Lamps Consume High Voltage?

Our 3D Lamps are designed to use minimal power while lit. They consume, on average, roughly 0.012kw/h. You can leave it on all day or all night and still consume ten times less energy than a regular light bulb.

What is the Lifespan of a 3D Lamp?

Our 3D lamps are designed to shine for 50,000 hours. They are made of the highest quality materials and crafted by our team in the United States. We constantly test our products to ensure the best product for you.

What Are the Weights of 3D Lamps?

Our lamps are 5.3”x7.12”x2.5” and only weigh 0.7 pounds. They do fold into the box, allowing for easy storage.

Differences between Glass Neon and LED Neon Flex

What is the Difference Between Glass Neon and LED Neon?

We pride ourselves on creating a product that is safe, easy to use, and a long-life product. The following are the differences between LED and glass and why LED is better.

  • Affordable – LED is a cheaper product to make and easier to replace tubing for repairs.
  • Durability - LED is flame-resistant, flexible, and constructed of high-quality PVC tubing that is shatter-resistant.
  • Energy-Efficient - LED signs use less power than glass signs. Glass signs require a 3KV-18KV voltage, while LED only needs a 24V/120V.
  • Safety - LED lights are cool to the touch and do not shatter, making them safe around children and pets.
  • Easy Installation - LED signs are lightweight and mount similar to any artwork. There are no special installation instructions to follow.
  • Easy to Maintain – All of our signs require minimal to no maintenance, unlike glass lighting that needs professionals to maintain.
  • Lightweight – Our signs never weigh more than 12-pounds, so they are portable. This allows you to use them anywhere you desire without worrying about moving costs.
  • Noise-free - Glass signs are known for their annoying buzzing sounds, which are non-existent with LED lighting.
  • No Interference - LED lights do not interfere with other electronics in your house or office space.
  • Brighter Light - LED glows at 210 lm/m, unlike glass that produces light at 197 lm/m.
  • Longer Lifespan - LED lights last approximately five times longer than glass tube signs, roughly 50,000 hours.

The only thing that LED struggles to compete with glass tubing is the nostalgic look. We can create similar looks, but they will not be the same.

Are They Environmentally Friendly?

LED lights are designed to be ten times more efficient than glass tube lighting. They only use 24v/120v, making them more environmentally friendly. Glass signs will require 3kv-18kv voltage, increasing your energy costs and fire risks. Finally, LED signs are safer for the environment in that they last longer and do not use harmful chemicals. For those who are looking for natural products, we offer wooden backboards as an option.

If you are unable to provide us with either one, our abilities to assist are limited. We will reach out to you as soon as we have all the required information.

Do Your Signs Come with a Warranty?

All our indoor signs come with a 24-month warranty, covering electrical components when used indoors only. Our outdoor signs come with a three-month warranty, covering electrical components when appropriately used. All resolutions for faulty signs will depend solely on the diagnostic finding and be handled in a case-by-case situation. The management department holds the right to all final decisions.

What is Your Warranty Coverage?

Our warranty only covers damages with the actual tubing, backboard, or electrical components. We hold no responsibility for any damages incurred during the installation or removal of our products. In the unlikely event that your sign is experiencing a faulty operation, we require photographs and a short video to be sent to us for diagnostic purposes. We will need the sign to be returned to us in the original condition and packaging you received. This will allow us to test the product and determine if a replacement or refund is necessary. We do provide all pre-drilled holes for mounting purposes. If you hire a professional to hang your sign, we will want to see where the sign was mounted to determine if the faulty display occurred during installation. If you have any questions or concerns, we are happy to assist. Please reach out and let us know your situation. We always look forward to hearing from you.
