Pretty cool! We've recently signed up to be considered for So. Cal. Edison's energy conservation program called "Direct Install," which aims to save local businesses on their energy costs and demand through an evaluation and the installation of energy-efficient products, including LED lighting. We're hoping to hear from them in the near future so we can keep the ball rolling on having a more sustainable office.

It's great to hear more and more companies are starting to switch over to LED lights.  I'm surprised that Timberland, of all companies, decided to make the switch.

It's definitely a good thing, but is it really all that surprising? After all, Timberland is an outdoor apparel company whose products are intended for people who want to get closer to nature. If anything, it's surprising that it took them this long.

I agree. The LED lights are very useful in saving energy, just like this http://www.sunpowerport.com. It also helps save energy and it is environmentally friendly. See it.
