In April 2009 the Pegasus Associates Lighting Forum went live on our website. To help garner interest in the forum and to entice people to join, we offered free gifts to new members and had a monthly drawing for a $50 Pegasus Associates Lighting gift certificate for the entire year. Since the forum went live we have 74 members and a total of 174 posts. During the year we had members share their lighting projects, help us by reviewing a new LED product that we were thinking of selling, and, of course, asking their lighting questions.
Now it is time to announce our newest, and final, monthly $50 gift certificate winner. This month our winner is forum member scyce. Scyce joined our forum in July and used the forum to post a question about adding recessed lighting in a basement that he was finishing.
The Pegasus Associates Lighting Forum is an online lighting community with a primary focus on helping answer our website visitor’s lighting questions. Answers may come from one of our technical customer service representatives monitoring our lighting forum, our company president, or another forum member. In addition, our forum is also a place to allow people to share their lighting projects (including images), post lighting articles, and to provide feedback on our products or website.

Recently, my family and I moved into a new home. We had lived in our previous home for more than seven years (loving every minute in our old house). But we were starting to get just a little cramped as our family had grown from just the two of us to now the four of us. While packing and moving is no fun at all, I was looking forward to the new house because I had some big plans for our lighting. I mean, hey, I do work for a lighting company.
A great, very effective way to improve the task lighting in your kitchen, perhaps the most important room in your home, is under cabinet lighting. Just take a look at this recent article from 
Recently we received a brand new LED lighting product from one of our suppliers to review with the potential for us to sell it on our website. While we were examining it and discussing its strengths and weaknesses, we came up with the idea to have our customers examine and install the product and then give us their unfiltered feedback. We talked with the supplier and they graciously agreed to provide us with several products to give away free to four of our customers. The only requirement, but very important requirement, is that each customer must provide us with complete written feedback about this new product and photos showing the installation of this product.
