March Magnitude Madness Week 4: T-Series Transformers

The last week of March has arrived, and the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament has narrowed its way down to the Final Four with some exciting upsets and impressive at-the-buzzer wins! This year’s tournament was initially described by fans and commentators as an unusual combination of teams, making bracket predictions particularly challenging. Yet despite the initial odds, four highly skilled college programs have made a place for themselves in the finals: top seeded Kansas and Villanova, along with defensive power-house University of Michigan, and eleventh seed Cinderella story, Loyola Chicago. Semi-final games are set to take place this Saturday, March 31st,…

NEW DIY 1″ Radiant Edge Panels

When Inspired LED opened its doors back in 2009, our owners began with a mission to provide high quality low-voltage fixtures to the public. LEDs were already well-known within technology and commercial sectors, especially around Silicon Valley. However as a contractor or homeowner it was more difficult to find reliable affordable solutions for replacing fluorescent and incandescent bulbs. Many of our original products, including the Pro Series and Designer Series Kits were specially designed to suit this purpose, providing simple plug & play options that allowed customers to add light wherever they needed it most, (without having to hire an electrician). While…

March Magnitude Madness Week 3: LinDrive Transformers

It’s time for another March Madness Monday at Inspired LED! The NCAA tournament continues, with our first few rounds of elimination leaving some key teams out in the cold, while others continue the march to victory. We’re officially down to the Sweet 16—and this year’s top contenders are being dubbed an unusual mix of everything from “unlikely” to “surprising”. Only two No. 1 seed teams managed to survive the first week of games. Meanwhile Kentucky seems to have finally hit its stride, while Loyola Chicago (perhaps with a little help from a special team chaplain) has claimed a few miraculous…

Four Ways to Lighten Up for Spring

That time of year is here again: bring on the sniffles, the pollen, the dust, and all those springtime chores that have been piling up since last March. Spring cleaning can be a drag, but it’s also a great chance to rediscover all of the cool untouched things you have hidden around the house. (Maybe it’s an old video game console, or that shirt you swore you’d wear, but forgot you had!) Whether you decide to reorganize or simply make a donation, spring cleaning is the perfect time to declutter and make home improvements. A few simple changes here and there can go a long…

March Magnitude Madness Week 2: Electronic Transformers

The wait is over! After weeks of speculation and anticipation, the arrival of Selection Sunday means it’s officially time to fill in those brackets and give in to the March Madness fever! The top four seeds of the NCAA tournament have been announced, with Virginia, Villanova, Kansas, and Xavier leading the pack. As with any year, there were a few unexpected upsets, including Notre Dame, Middle Tennessee, and USC, who sadly missed the mark with this year’s selection committee. But there were also a few surprises, including Texas, Oklahoma, and AZ State making the cut despite some rocky games earlier this…
