LEDtronics - Ed Pink LED high bay luminaires

Ed Pink has been building racing engines since 1946, and Ed Pink Racing Engines — the company he founded in 1958 — has enjoyed success in nearly every form of motor sports over the past 56 years.

From developing winning engines for the top teams such as Ford, Pontiac, Toyota and Infiniti in IndyCar, NASCAR and Formula 5000 races, to providing specialized motors for dragsters, sprint cars, Funny Cars, midgets and vintage race cars, the company’s engines have accumulated over 100 victories and more than a dozen national championships, powering legends like Don Prudhomme and Tony Stewart to victory.

Nicknamed “The Old Master,” Ed Pink built more than 5,000 engines during his 60-year career, mostly in his facility in an industrial area of Van Nuys, California. He sold the company six years ago to successful entrepreneur and vintage racecar collector and racer Thomas Malloy. It currently encompasses two buildings totaling approximately 12,000 square feet of floor space, where auto racing engines are built, rebuilt, tested, designed and developed for local, national and international customers.

When the time came to replace the outdated fluorescent lighting in their assembly and design areas where an eclectic combination of state-of-the-art precision equipment and machinery are used, Ed Pink Racing Engines turned to LEDtronics. Not only did LED lights provide more and brighter illumination, but they did so with dramatically lower energy consumption and producing only a fraction of the heat of fluorescents.
