★★★★★I bought this halfway through setting up my second shop. It's got a lot of good, solid information, especially the chapter on choosing the right sign. It made me rethink my lighting, and I get why my old sign was hard to read at dusk. I do wish the installation chapter had more diagrams or photos, as I'm a visual learner. The text is dense and thorough, but if you're not into reading, it can feel like a bit of a slog. That said, I've already used the troubleshooting section to fix a flickering LED, so it's worth it. I'll probably keep it as a reference even if I didn't read it cover to cover.
