still no electricians
Light Power Solutions does use electricians. They are licensed to install Power Boxes. As a matter of fact all their products are exceptionally good and save alot of money to the consumers every day and every month. All the complaints are not true and these people hide behind the internet spewing false information and malicious rumors. They need to get on with their lives and leave things well enough alone.

I have these products in my home and am very satisfied with the great savings on my utility bills every month. Simply put, these products work. People need to stop listening to the negativity of these blogs and focus on the truth. These products have been manufactured and tested and they do save money on your utility bills.

still no electricans
I was called to a house the other day by a dear friend of mine to check out a green mizer energy box that he bought from the company called light power solutions, llc. As i thought he had it installed by a installer from the company and not a liecneces electrican. This brings up a BAD problem for the home owner because it only takes one wrong move in a box to cause fire. I would like everyone to know about this if you buy this product PLEASE get a liecnesce electrican to do the work. This company has no idea what they are doing to people's homes. And for electrian's like myself that are having trouble finding work this makes me mad cause they are not pulling permits and that is wrong.

I would like to say that ALL products that you install on a breaker panel must be done by a electrician or by the home owner. He can not give permission to do this by law. Every state has laws on this so you best check it out before you get a lawsuit on you and your company. I just left the office of the labor and licenseing board of AL to file a complaint on this company and to give pictures of there box and how they installed it on this guy's house. So i guess we will see if your company is doing it right. I think i will file a complaint in a few more state's to just for the hell of it now cause people like to make fun of people that tell the truth and are concerned with other people.
I, too, was talked into purchasing the"green box" from Light Power Solutions, LLC. It cost me a lot of money, saved me none, and is now falling off the wall where their "electrician" installed it. Pretty scary because it is hooked directly into my breaker box! Fraudulent company, major scam, huge rip-off! Here are some names associated with this now defunct company: Jim Morgan and Matt Hopson. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH ANYONE WHO OFFERS A FREE DINNER TO SELL A PRODUCT THAT 'SAVES YOU ELECTRICITY!"
LPS came to my house..took my money, put a hole in my ceiling and disconnected their phones. i can reach NO ONE...meanwhile i have a hole and promises from the company to fix and no way to get ahold of them...and i am out 3000.00... DO NOT use this company no matter what they are ripoffs...
Well veenag at least you got boxes and paint cans delivered to your door. I had the same experience and purchased 4, 000 worth of their products. I did get the Ultra Shield but the rest? It has been almost a month and we have nothing. I have called the company several times, alwsays told they will ship the products out...still waiting.
I think I have been duped. I went to a presentation by power solutions and being impulsive I called the presenter to come to my home. He talked me into how much money I would save with the paint guard the refecting film in the attic, attaching something to the washer so that I will use only cold water. I signed a contract for over 8500.00. After afew days I started having doubts. I called the rep who did not want to answer any questions. I have been calling the main office for days. Only the secretary will talk to me. The manager or the president have the policy of not talking to any customers. On the internet there is just one page of information which just talks the heat guard. It does not even show what all they showed at the presentation. I do not know what to do. I have lot of boxes and paint cans delivered to my door. Can anyone tell me what to do. I truly feel like a fool.

I love all the mudslinging for this so-called Christian Company... Folks, UMA & Light Power (and a few other names in-between) are the same company... The company - UMA - started off as a solid, legitimate company but went through a personnel change in 2009 where one person was hired on as the National Sales Manager. This man gained the confidence of the owner, eliminated any and all threats around him to move higher in the company, and proceeded to fly UMA into the side of a proverbial with his shady dealings (the gift cards... the bs money back guarantee... not knowing the products well enough... high pressure sales tactics)...
The shady dealings created THOUSANDS of complaints which led to negative publicity which ultimately led to the company's solution to the problem; choosing to run, hide and change the name rather than deal with the problem head on...
It's too bad because the products were great and I know many, many more people that have had positive experiences with the products versus those in the past few years who's negative experience are all in dealing with the corporate office.
Light Power Solutions, LLC is a scam and the owner Gary Light is no doubt, a real scammer. The products are overpriced by hundreds of dollars. Just check somewhere else and you will see that you can save hundreds and even thousands by not buying from them. Talk them down...their Ultra Power Shield should sell for $1.60-1.75. Don't get burned. Be smart and research.
Hey I am attending a seminar in Mechanicsville, Maryland in January, I work for the attorney generals office, I would like any actual paper facts posted and names to contact so if this is as every one has posted, a scam. I will assure you there will be some criminal inditement s handed out. We will not tolerate this in our State.
Interesting reading. I was doing some internet research on this company as I was waiting on the phone for someone to answer. My domestic partner and I received an invitation to a dinner presentation but were told we weren't eligible because we weren't married. That is an interesting approach to sales. Not sure what that is all about. Anyone have any ideas?
The installer job is a hard one, but it's honest work for decent pay. If it doesn't work out with UMA/LPS call me, I can place him elsewhere doing the same work. It's my understanding UMA/LPS is on it's last legs because all of the good salespeople have left and they have nothing but rookies working there now. Since installers are paid by the square foot, it will be tough to make money in that environment.
Stay away! Although some of the products are valid, they are overpriced. The salesman that came to my home was smooth but after reviewing the things that were told to me they are obviously trained and have a BS degree ([censored]).
Don't waste your money. The things they say are not true. I did go get the aluminum shield and it works but I got it for half the price. Gary Light, the owner, after learning more about him is a man that cannot be trusted.
We bought our package from LPS a year ago---a green power box, attic insulation, and the heat shield paint. After one year here is what our experience has been...the green power box caught fire 3 months after it was installed and the whole house went dark. When we went into the garage to look at the breaker box we saw that the green box was too hot to touch and partially melted. Thank God it happened when we were home! We called the company and I have to give them kudos for their prompt response. We had a new box in no time and it was installed by a licensed electrician, who commented that whoever had installed the first one had done it completely wrong. No problems with it since then. As for saving 30-50% on utility bills--no. There is no noticeable difference between this past year with all the LPS products and the previous years, and we have not changed our habits. With that being said, if I had known we would not have seen the huge savings promised I don't think we would have spent the $4000.
I am a dissatisfied customer from South Carolina we were shown one product at dinner
then when installers were at our home they tried to install a cheaper product.My wife called Attorney General and they said they were having alot of COMPLAINT'S from customer's who been RIP-OFF from Light Power Solution's. Ladies and gentleman BEWARE of this SCAM. We have called there office that supposed to be in Florida but is not.It is in Belden, Mississippi. The so-called owner Gary Light a.k.a Gary Glatter from FLORIDA.We have researched and found out DO NOT TRUST Light power Solutions a.k.a Utility Mangerment Association.
This is what I just found as of today 01/26/2012 BBB has NO rating, 18 complaints, 12 resolved. I just got an invite to view this product, with a FREE dinner, I am to leave my check book home, but I bet they will want my address, phone number, 1st born all for a FREE dinner. I think not, just because BBB had NO rating. Take care of your complaints, as no one is perfect, but new customers need to know you take care of issues.
