June 05, 2008 // Franchising.com // - The International Dark Sky Association is a membership-based non-profit organization. Their mission is to work to preserve and protect the nighttime environment and our heritage of dark skies through quality outdoor lighting. The association's approach to this goal is to encourage outdoor lighting manufacturers and lighting designers to utilize fixtures which do not emit light that shines above the fixture itself as well as for the fixtures to be low voltage. In general, their position is that all outdoor fixtures should be fully shielded and installed in such a way that no light is emitted above the lowest part of the fixture. In this way, excessive glare, light trespass, and light pollution are minimized.

NiteLites Outdoor Lighting has lighting fixtures which minimize excessive glare, light trespass, and general light pollution and meet the IDA's criteria More information about the Dark Sky Association is available on their website at http://www.darksky.org .

NiteLites low voltage lighting systems consume approximately 1/3 less energy than systems that use line (120V) voltage. Low voltage systems have another distinct advantage over line volt systems in that they are much more flexible when applying the light to the object that is intended to be featured. Many of NiteLites lighting fixtures are designed with shields which prevent light from rising above the fixture, including fixtures which have gained the Dark Sky Association's seal of approval. And many of NiteLites fixtures are designed and installed to shine downward, thereby minimizing light pollution. A selection of these NiteLites' compliant lighting fixtures are featured on www.landscapeonline.com.
