Host of the NGHTV web series, Ty Pennington, reveals the “First to the Future Home” this spring. More than 200 of Eaton’s Halo® light-emitting diodes (LED) lighting solutions are utilized throughout the interior and exterior coves of the home. Eaton’s wiring devices, generators and other products are also incorporated into the project.
