Single digit Light Emitting Diode (LED) modules for replacing plastic
numerals in a gas station pricing sign. Three or four LED modules
represent one fuel price. The LED modules are mounted to a transparent
face present on existing signs, and may be mounted on an exterior or
interior surface of the face. In one embodiment, first LED modules
mechanically cooperate with backing plates, thereby sandwiching the face,
in another embodiment, second LED modules attach to posts glued to the
face. When mounted externally, the LED modules fit into tracks provided
for the plastic numerals which are being replaced. An RF, infrared, or
hard wired control signal may be used to change prices, and a photocell
may be used to control LED intensity in response to ambient light.
Additional low power consumption LEDs are provided inside the sign to
back illuminate information provided on the face.
