SAN DIEGO - Petty Officer 3rd Class Jason Flores and Petty Officer 1st Class Juan Diaz, members of U.S. Coast Guard Aids to Navigation Team San Diego, lift the existing incandescent lantern from its place on the Point Loma lighthouse before replacing it with a light-emitting diode system in San Diego, Feb. 6, 2013.
The LED system is brighter, uses 96 percent less energy and requires less maintenance than the incandescent lantern. U.S. Coast Guard photo by Petty Officer 1st Class Henry G. Dunphy.
