I'm getting to think the whole world is going LED light crazy! It's one thing with the blinding LED tail lights they're putting on cars, but, in the past year or 2, I see many stores/restaurants now outlining their storefront windows with bright white and/or red LED lights! Some of the lights are blue!
There's a larger convenience store, not too far away, which outlined every window with those blinding white lights. The lights are so blinding you almost need sunglasses just to find the door handle! And? Do the owners really think it's going to draw in more customers?
As for me, with my eyes being so sensitive to light, I won't shop at these places! But what I really need to do is confront the owner/clerks/manager and give them the reason I won't shop at their store!
How about you, in your city, are you seeing more and more of this, and do you like it or dislike it?
Those lights you will find "decorating" cheap stores in poor areas - pawn shops, payday loans, parlors, nail shops, adult novelties etc. Reputable business would not use obnoxious light or loud music to attract customers.
Red LED light is more suitable for "red light district"
There's also a big Title Loan store, in the same shopping center with the store with the bright white LED lights, but the Title Loan store has all their windows outlined with red LED lights!
I think, largely, it's the Latino-owned businesses that are attracted to this kind of lighting! I notice it, particularly, when I drive through Mex-Town (North Las Vegas) on my way to work.
I'm in a whiter section of Las Vegas, East Central, but these LED outlined store fronts pop here as well, and more numerous by the day!
