What are 250 Watt Equivalent LED Flood Lights?

250 watt equivalent LED flood lights are high-efficiency outdoor LED lighting fixtures designed to replace 250-watt Metal Halide, HID (High-Intensity Discharge), or halogen flood lights. They produce a high-quality,  bright light while consuming significantly less power than the HID lights they are meant to replace. Their robust design ensures durability in various weather conditions. They work well in commercial, industrial, and other outdoor open spaces.

Comparing 250 Watt Equivalent LED Flood Light to Metal Halide and Halogen Flood Lights

• Energy Efficiency: LEDs typically use about 50% to 75% less energy than traditional Metal Halide and Halogen flood lights.
• Light Output: Despite the lower energy consumption, they deliver comparable or even superior light output (measured in lumens) with better directional control.
• Lifespan: LEDs last significantly longer, up to 150,000 hours or more, reducing the frequency of bulb and ballast replacements.

Ideal Applications for 250 Watt Equivalent LED Flood Lights

These lights are versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications, including:

• outdoor security lighting
• parking lots
• sports field lighting
• airport aprons
• industrial site lighting
• event spaces
• large public areas

Using 250 Watt Equivalent LED Flood Lights in Outdoor Sports Facilities

Yes, however, they are on the lower end (power and lumens) of what we would consider a sports light.

LED Floodlights, in general, offer high-quality lighting along with customizable beam angle/optics that allow them to be custom fit for an application. Our flood lights provide uniform lighting across arenas, sports fields, or outdoor courts.

Benefits of 250 Watt Equivalent LED Flood Lights

• Lower Costs: Lower energy consumption and longer lifespan mean reduced electricity bills and maintenance costs.
• Lighting Quality: LEDs provide brighter, high-quality (CRI) lighting. We offer various color temperature options (3000K - 5000K).
• Instant On / Instant Off: Unlike HID lamps, LEDs reach full brightness instantly without any warm-up/strike time.
• Dimmable: LED lights can be dimmed, and work well with external sensors like photocells and motion sensors.

Choosing the Right Beam Angle for 250 Watt Equivalent LED Flood Lights

The choice of beam angle should be based on the area's size and the specific lighting objectives.

• Narrow beam angles (10°-30°) are ideal for focusing light on specific points or for tall installations
• Wide beam angles (up to 120°) are better for illuminating large areas evenly.
• A medium beam angle might provide the right balance between focused and diffuse lighting for mixed-use spaces.

We offer free lighting plans for our commercial and industrial customers to ensure the right light is chosen for your application/space.

Lumen Output for 250-Watt Equivalent LED Flood Lights

These lights typically provide between 9,000 and 12,000 lumens. They are more energy efficient than Metal Halide Lighting and require fewer watts to produce the same amount of lumens.

Marine-Grade 250 Watt Equivalent LED Flood Lights

These lights are available with marine-grade specifications. These fixtures have enhanced corrosion resistance, die-cast aluminum bodies, and robust construction to withstand harsh marine environments. These fixtures are ideal for:

• docks
• ships
• offshore platforms
• coastal facilities
• container yards

Lifespan of 250 Watt Equivalent LED Flood Lights

The lifespan of our LED flood lights typically ranges from 50,000 to 150,000 + hours. This translates into years of reliable maintenance-free lighting.

Mounting Options for 250 Watt Equivalent LED Flood Lights

The common mounting options we offer are:

• pole mounts
• wall mounts
• trunnion mounts
• knuckle mount
• yoke mounts
