As a contractor, business owner or house owner, it can be daunting to select the right type of LED flood lights from the market. You want to choose the lights which are made with superior quality materials, efficiency, and low maintenance. In this article we want to give you the right information so it can become easier for you if you want to purchase LED flood lights in New Zealand. 

Things to consider: 

  1. Location: When selecting flood lights, understanding the facility and area you’re lighting is crucial to ensure optimal coverage. Whether for industrial, commercial, or residential purposes, the right placement and type of flood light will significantly affect performance. 
  2. Brightness: Floodlights can output anywhere between 2,000 to 202,000 lumens, so selecting the appropriate brightness depends on the size and purpose of the area you want to illuminate. If  you want to illuminate a small residential area, then you can get away with somewhere between 2,000 to 5,000 lumens. If you are looking for floodlights to light up medium outdoor spaces such as parking lots, courtyards, then you would need somewhere between 5,000 to 10,000 lumens. For any large commercial space it is ideal to flood lights that produce between 15,000 to 35,000 lumens. 
  3. Color temperature: It is an essential factor to consider when selecting flood lights for specific applications. Firstly for security reasons, you should opt for cool white (4000 K) or daylight color temperature (6000 K). These temperatures appear brighter to the human eye, providing enhanced visibility and a more proactive deterrent against potential threats. Secondly, for work environments, cooler light temperatures create a more natural atmosphere, which can help you stay alert and focused on tasks. This is particularly beneficial in workspaces where concentration is crucial. Most of the lights these days come with in-built tri-colour features. It is good to choose a product that can offer flexibility later on and we would recommend going with a flood light that offers tri-colour features. 
  4. Warranty: When investing in lighting, it’s essential to consider the warranty offered by the seller. Warranties provide peace of mind, ensuring that your investment is protected against defects and performance issues. Typically, reputable lighting products come with warranties ranging from one to five years, depending on the type and quality of the fixture. A longer warranty period often indicates the manufacturer’s confidence in their product’s durability and performance. 
  5. Easy to install: Easy-to-install flood lights offer a convenient solution for enhancing outdoor lighting without the hassle of complex setups. Many modern fixtures feature a plug-and-play design, allowing for quick connections that are ideal for DIY enthusiasts. Adjustable mounting brackets enable precise positioning to achieve optimal illumination angles, while lightweight materials make handling and installation a breeze. 
  6. Beam Angles: When selecting flood lights, consider the specific application and the area you wish to illuminate. For security purposes, narrow beams can be effective for focused surveillance, while wide beams are more suitable for enhancing visibility in expansive outdoor settings. By understanding beam angles, you can optimize your lighting design for both functionality and aesthetic appeal, ensuring that every corner of your outdoor space is well-lit and inviting.

Other key features you must look for when buying outdoor/indoor flood lights

  • High Performing Optics that deliver maximum application coverage without being obtrusive. 
  • Efficient LED Thermal Design Fins on the back of the luminaires can ensure good heat dissipation; these create airflow around the housing to prevent dirt from settling on the luminaire. 
  • More energy savings for example, system efficacy over 120lm/w generates more than 50% in energy savings compared to conventional floodlights. 
  • Flexibility in optical beam choices (symmetric wide and, asymmetric medium and wide) will suit most lighting application needs. 
  • Excellent reliability meaning 15KV/KA surge protection and non-corrosive die-cast aluminium housing and bracket means you can install in harsh environments. 
  • Long-lasting for example, Lifetime 50,000 hours at L70 means that after 50,000 hours, the LEDs are emitting 70%  of their original output.
