Choosing the Best LED Lighting Supply Wall Pack for Your Application

Energy Savings and Return on Investment

Our LED wall packs deliver substantial cost savings through reduced energy consumption. For example, replacing 20 traditional 400-watt metal halide fixtures with 150-watt LED wall packs, which operate 12 hours daily, provides impressive savings.

At $0.13 per kWh, the annual energy savings total $2,847, with total savings of $57,154 over the 20-year LED lifespan. This represents a 73% reduction in energy costs.

Maintenance cost savings add even more value. Over the LED fixture's lifespan, you'll save approximately $8,000 in maintenance costs for the same 20 fixtures. This includes elimination of bulb replacements, ballast changes, and associated labor costs.

Combined with energy savings, the total return on investment typically occurs in under 1 year.

Specifications and Available Options

Our wall packs are available in multiple wattages ranging from 15 watts to 150 watts, with many featuring toggle-adjustable wattage and lumen output. For color temperature, 5000K is our most popular choice and an excellent replacement for metal halide fixtures. 4000K works well for replacing fluorescent lighting. If you can't decide on color temperature, we offer toggle-adjustable fixtures that allow you to select the preferred color temperature after installation.

You can choose between forward throw (no light restriction), full cutoff and semi-cutoff. Full cutoff is the best option for dark sky compliance and facade lighting, where forward throw is the best option for security lighting and pathway lighting. Semi-cutoff is a happy alternative to both of these combined

Motion sensors provide additional energy savings opportunities, while photocells ensure lights turn on and off at appropriate times.
