Selection of Wattage for High-Power LED Floodlights

As lighting landscapes evolve, high-power LED floodlights have found widespread use. So, how can one choose a good high-power floodlight? When shopping for high-power floodlights, besides considering the quality and price of the floodlights, one should also think about the wattage. The brighter the floodlight, the better, even if it's priced affordably. If the wattage of the selected LED high-power floodlight is too low, it will not achieve the quantifiable lighting purpose; conversely, if the wattage of the high-power floodlight is too high, the excessive brightness can also pose problems. Many might wonder, why can’t the lighting be too bright? Let’s take a look at a real-life example below.

In one location, high-power LED floodlights were installed to enhance lighting and facilitate driving for drivers. However, complaints were made against drivers because the wattage and brightness of the high-power floodlights were too high. It was found that the light emitted from the high-power floodlights in the flower beds was above the drivers’ control panels; the intense light affected their ability to observe road conditions and increased the risk of accidents. It is suggested that the relevant departments could lower the height of the high-power floodlights slightly to avoid interfering with the drivers' field of vision.

Therefore, the choice of wattage for high-power LED floodlights is very particular; it should be neither too high nor too low. If unsure about how to make a purchase, one can consult the manufacturers of high-power floodlights, or visit the corresponding locations to avoid improper installation of high-power floodlights that could affect the lighting effect High-wattage floodlights can produce a strong contrast of light and darkness in the surroundings, which can lead to highway accidents—this point must be noted.
