Choose the right LED ticker display

Four ranges, one job: a band of light that reads from where people stand. Pick indoor or outdoor, straight or curved, then the height and the pitch.

Curved and halo

How to choose

Where will it be read from? The nearest reader sets the pitch. Desks two to three metres away want 1.9 to 2.5 mm. A pavement a few metres back reads 3 mm. Across a hall or a street, 3.9 mm and up. The size and pitch guide has the table.

How tall? 250 mm is the standard band: tall enough for a logo tile and two lines of text at a 1.9 mm pitch, slim enough to sit in a ceiling line. Taller bands are built from the same modules in 250 mm steps.

How long? Any length. Tickers are built from cabinets, so a 4 m window strip and an 80 m trading-floor loop use the same parts. Corners can be rigid right angles or a flexible curve.

Indoors or out? Indoor modules run at 800 nits and more. Behind a shop window facing the sun, use DX HB at 3,000 nits and more. Outside, DVO at 6,000 nits and more with an IP65 front.
