HOW TO CHOOSE LED FLOODLIGHT FOR OUTDOOR FOR A HOME Leave a comment

Flood lights, which are also known as security lights, are strategically placed to provide high quality lighting for your home.

Targeting the correct flood light for your space can be challenging due to the number of options available for these light fixtures.

Here are some features to consider when deciding which outdoor LED Floodlights are right for you.

Lumens

While wattage measures the amount of energy required to light products, lumens measure the amount of light produced.

This means that the more lumens the product has, the brighter the light source is. Instead of buying products based on how much energy they consume (watts), consumers should consider how much light they give us (lumens).

Wattage

Wattage is the measure of the bulb’s energy consumption – not how much light it puts out. Energy-efficient bulbs use fewer watts to give off the same amount of brightness (lumens).

Color Temperature

Color temperature refers to the color appearance of the light that comes from a light source. It’s an important performance characteristic to asses when evaluating bulbs because the color temperature creates the mood of the space you are lighting and can thus influence buying behavior or work performance. The apparent color of a light source is measured in Kelvin. The higher the Kelvin temperature, the whiter the light.
