These can often be driven wirelessly from a central database of prices such as that used at point of sale. Saves labor costs of changing prices and can avoid the draconian penalties leveled by some regulators when the price charged does not equal the price posted. Also, ESL can also be used as small displays to attract the shopper and provide product information.
ESL's are still not in broad use due to their cost and infrastructure requirements. Also tests have shown they are hard to read, especially on bottom shelves, by some shoppers.
