Outdoor LED Lights

Outdoor LED lights are an energy-efficient and low-maintenance option for any outdoor lighting purpose. They last long, appear brighter, and use a much smaller percentage of energy than a traditional light would.

LED lights are weather-resistant and come in a variety of forms, including outdoor wall fixtures and linear lights, for any purpose. String lights can create a twinkling canopy over your gazebo, pergola, or patio space for an intimate mood, while filament drop lights can provide more light and a decorative touch.

What watt should my outdoor LED light be?

Selecting the right light can make the difference between perfect brightness and an overly bright or barely visible outdoor space. Wattage refers to the amount of energy that is used. When making a choice, you want to consider the purpose and positioning, whether it is for landscaping, security purposes, or to highlight certain areas.

When lighting pathways, garden beds, and other landscape areas, 40 watts and below is ideal. When illuminating driveways and small yards, 40 to 80 watts is best. For outdoor floodlights used for security purposes, you want something that is 80 watts and over.

What are the LED watt equivalents to traditional incandescent light bulb watts?

LED watt equivalents can only be approximately calculated, as they depend on the colour, quality, and type of traditional bulb.

LED light bulbs use just 10% of the energy of traditional incandescent light bulbs. A 100-watt incandescent bulb will therefore be equivalent to a 10-watt LED one. In comparison to halogen light bulbs, LEDs use around 85% less energy. A 100-watt halogen light bulb would equate to a 12-watt LED bulb.
