LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 24, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Axis Technologies Group, Inc. (Pink Sheets:AXTG), a Green technology company that designs, manufactures and markets a proprietary line of energy-saving and daylight harvesting electronic dimming ballasts utilized in fluorescent lighting for the commercial lighting industry, is displaying the company's dimming/daylight harvesting (DDH) fluorescent ballasts in booth 1124 at the 2007 LightShow/West on October 24th and 25th, 2007, at the Los Angeles Convention Center. LightShow/West is the largest lighting event showcasing commercial, architectural, and high design lighting products dedicated to the West Coast specification community.
LightShow/West partners with the top six major lighting agencies in the Southern California area to deliver a powerful mix of industry experts for the West Coast region. LightShow/West is the only trade show and conference focused solely on West Coast specifiers of lighting products which include architects, lighting designers, engineers, interior designers, equipment manufacturers (OEM), contractors, retailers, end-users, facility managers, consultants, visual merchandisers and store planners.
At the show, lighting professionals get insider access to new product innovations, design solutions and lighting advancements -- while discovering unique creations guaranteed to catapult their business past the competition.
"California's Title 24 mandates daylight harvesting and lighting controls for most new buildings and lighting upgrades. The state of California has continued to set standards within the Green community with innovative legislation and public awareness programs. For example, Governor Schwarzenegger signed a bill on Oct. 12th that requires the state Energy Commission to adopt regulations that will cut electricity use from lighting by 50 percent in 10 years. The opportunity to further create a strong presence within this thriving market is of the utmost importance to our company," stated Jim Erickson, president of Axis Technologies.

About the Axis DDH Ballast
A "ballast" is an electronic component that regulates voltage in fluorescent lighting. Axis Technologies Group, Inc. has developed an innovative new ballast with the aim of expanding daylight harvesting into mainstream fluorescent lighting applications. The patented Axis Dimming/Daylight Harvesting Ballast is a new technology that transforms the ballast, a once standard lighting industry staple, into a dynamic energy saving system that can reduce lighting energy costs by up to 70%. The Axis DDH Ballast utilizes an individual photo sensor to automatically adjust the amount of electrical current flowing to the light fixture, and then dims or increases lighting in conjunction with the amount of available sunlight that may be harvested from available windows and sunlight. The Axis DDH Ballast avoids "over-lit" conditions that increase energy costs by keeping lighting "tuned" to the desired level in a designated area.
