Boise's cross getting LEDs, to be even brighter

A six-story mountaintop cross whose 2,100 watts of white light have illuminated the Boise night since 1956 is going green - and getting even brighter. The private group that owns the cross atop Table Rock is replacing its electricity-devouring fluorescent tubes with 2,600 energy-efficient LED lamps to cut the power bill from about $60 monthly to just $20.
