This compact 80×16 cm indoor LED scrolling sign is the ideal answer for small shops, kiosks and reception desks that need a space-saving but eye-catching way to carry a message without a complex control system. It is programmed over USB in a few clicks with no computer expertise, and the built-in memory holds 6 different message profiles. It can be ordered with red, white or green LEDs in a housing of about 1.2 kg that is easy to fix to a wall or ceiling. For short messages read from 3–6 metres – opening hours, ticket numbers, the current offer – this is the most popular size class, because it is prominent enough to be noticed without dominating the space.
LED scrolling sign 80×16 cm – compact indoor
The 80×16 cm version of the LED scrolling sign falls into the most sought-after size class: large enough to be noticed, small enough not to dominate a tight indoor space. It is a perfect answer for kiosks, pharmacies, above florists' counters and similar lower-traffic locations. With simple USB installation and the software supplied, it can be commissioned in minutes. No Wi-Fi network, app or technical background is needed – a laptop and a USB cable are enough to edit the text, which many small business owners like precisely because it means one less smart device to look after in the shop.

Size and design
When is 80×16 cm enough?
If the message is short – 'Open 8–20', 'Sale: 20%', 'Now serving: 12' – and the viewing distance is 3–6 metres, the compact 80×16 cm build is entirely sufficient. The slim aluminium frame suits a modern interior. This size is just big enough that, mounted above a till or reception desk, it catches the eye immediately, without taking space away from the shelving or the window display, unlike a large outdoor board, which would have no place here.
Simple installation
How is it fixed to the wall?
The package includes a wall bracket and the screws needed. The power lead is 1.5 metres long, so it can be run from a nearby socket. Mounting options: screwed to a wall, or suspended from the ceiling on a cable. At around 1.2 kg it needs no serious support structure – plain wall plugs and screws will do – and installation typically takes 15–20 minutes, so you can even do it yourself.
Why quality is no concern at this size either
Is this small board built from quality LEDs too?
Although this is the smallest and most popular size, the same quality-control principle applies to it as to its large outdoor relatives: LED chips from a single production batch keep the brightness even, so there will be no patchily fading pixels after a few months. The service life on this model is also over 50,000 hours, which at 10 hours of opening a day means 13+ years. If a problem does arise, Korád-Trade's service backing and its spare parts in regional stock give a fast answer on this simple, compact unit too – nothing has to be sent abroad for repair.
Handling and running costs
Is it really simple enough to programme?
Installing the software supplied and entering the first text takes 5–10 minutes; after that you can switch between the 6 message profiles held in memory using the buttons on the side of the board, with no computer. Consumption at this small size is negligible, estimated at around 10–15 W, which comes to only a few euros a year on the electricity bill. If you can write an email and open a file on a laptop, you can handle this software confidently – and at handover Korád-Trade also runs a short training session so that it works first time.
