Too dim and you’re squinting. Too bright and you’re wasting energy. Bad lighting hurts productivity, visibility, and safety. But the right level? That’s the game-changer. Footcandles and lux are two units used to measure the amount of light hitting a surface. One footcandle equals one lumen per square foot, while one lux equals one lumen per square meter. Knowing the right light level for your space—measured in footcandles or lux—is critical to choosing the correct LED fixtures and ensuring proper visibility, efficiency, and comfort. Let’s clear the confusion and figure out exactly how bright your space needs to be. What...
Choosing the wrong LED lighting fixtures leads to poor brightness, high costs, and wasted time. The right fixtures save energy, last longer, and deliver the results you need. When choosing LED lighting fixtures, it’s important to match the fixture type to your space, function, and brightness needs. Look at lumen output, wattage, beam angle, color temperature, and controls like dimming or sensors. Whether it’s for a shop, warehouse, or garage ceiling, picking the right LED ensures optimal performance and long-term savings. Don’t just grab any light—understand what you’re buying and why it matters. Let’s dive deeper and make sure you...
Poor lighting on race tracks leads to accidents, reduced speed, and frustrated racers and fans. The wrong lighting kills the experience. The right setup makes all the difference. Race track lights are powerful LED luminaires designed to provide uniform, glare-free illumination across high-speed tracks. They enhance driver visibility, reduce shadows, and improve safety during night events. Whether for car, motorcycle, karting, or drone racing, proper lighting ensures clear line-of-sight, better reaction times, and thrilling experiences for racers and spectators alike. LED race track lights also reduce energy costs and require minimal maintenance over time. Want your track to look and...
Tired of dark corners and poor visibility in your parking areas? It’s unsafe, unprofessional, and bad for business. Wall mounted LED parking lot lights fix all of that—fast and affordably. Wall mounted LED parking lot lights are fixed lighting units installed on the side of buildings or structures to illuminate parking spaces. Unlike pole-mounted lights, they don’t need extra infrastructure and are ideal for perimeter lighting. With high lumen output, low energy use, and long life, these commercial grade LED parking lot lights are the go-to for parking areas, warehouses, and commercial buildings. Want to find the perfect lighting setup?...
Picking the wrong LED tube light can lead to flickering, wasted energy, and even safety risks. And rework? That costs you time and money. Here’s how to get it right. LED tube lights are energy-efficient replacements for traditional fluorescent tubes. They come in different sizes (T5, T8, T12) and wiring types (Type A, B, A+B, C). Choosing the right LED tube depends on your fixture, ballast compatibility, brightness needs, and installation method. With the right info, you can pick a tube that fits perfectly, saves power, and lasts for years—no rewiring headaches, no costly returns. Keep reading so you don’t...
Ever replaced a light and thought, “This doesn’t look as bright as I expected”? It’s frustrating, wastes money, and can create serious visibility issues. You need to know exactly what you’re getting. A 150-watt LED light typically produces between 21,000 to 24,000 lumens, depending on its efficiency. That’s bright enough to replace a 400-watt metal halide or high-pressure sodium lamp in commercial or industrial settings. Modern 150W LED flood lights and high bays are engineered to deliver exceptional brightness while consuming far less power, making them ideal for warehouses, factories, parking lots, and sports arenas. Let’s unpack everything you need...
Nothing ruins a peaceful evening like bugs swarming around your lights. The wrong lighting can turn your space into an insect party. But the right LED setup? Total game-changer. LED lights are far less attractive to bugs compared to traditional lighting, especially when using warmer color temperatures like yellow, orange, or red. Bugs are naturally drawn to UV and blue light, which is minimal or absent in quality LED fixtures. So while no light is 100% bug-proof, switching to LEDs is one of the smartest ways to minimize insect problems around your home, garden, or warehouse. Let’s dig into what...
Tired of climbing ladders just to adjust your lights or dealing with confusing wall switches? It’s frustrating and wastes your time. Remote-controlled LED lights solve this and let you take control—literally. Remote controlled LED lights use wireless signals to adjust brightness, color, and even schedule operations. Whether using infrared (IR), radio frequency (RF), or smart apps on your phone, these lights are all about convenience, efficiency, and modern lighting control. Curious how it all works? Let’s break it down step-by-step and make remote LED lighting easy to understand. How does the LED light remote work? Remote-controlled LED lights use different...
Ever installed lights only to realize the space still looks dark or uneven? That’s the pain of skipping a photometric study—and it leads to wasted money, safety issues, and do-overs. A photometric study is a digital lighting simulation that shows exactly how light will spread in a space before installation. It helps lighting engineers, wholesalers, and contractors make the right lighting choices the first time, saving time and money. This plan, often called a photometric plan, eliminates guesswork and helps meet lighting codes and standards. Still curious? Let’s dive deeper and make sense of all the tech talk. What is...
Sick of changing metal halide bulbs all the time? Tired of sky-high electricity bills and poor lighting quality? That old 400W metal halide may be costing you more than you think. The good news? There’s a better, brighter, and more cost-efficient solution—LED. Let’s dive into what LED can truly replace a 400W metal halide. To replace a 400W metal halide, you need an LED fixture with around 100–150 watts, delivering about 16,000–24,000 lumens. Look for high-performance options like Logos Lighting’s LED high bay lights, which offer up to 160 lumens per watt with brand-name drivers and chips. You’ll cut energy...
