Transcript Summary:
Hi, I’m Neil Peterson with LED Lighting Supply. Today, I’m going to talk about tennis court lighting and why LED is an ideal upgrade over traditional metal halide systems.Why Choose LED for Tennis Courts?
- Energy Efficiency: Significant savings compared to metal halide
- Improved Light Quality: Enhanced visibility for better play
- Longer Lifespan: No more frequent bulb or ballast replacements
- Dark Sky Compliance: Better control of light spillage and glare
Key Considerations for Tennis Court Lighting:
- Number of poles (typically 2, 4, or 6 per court)
- Mounting height (commonly 25-30 feet)
- Fixtures per pole (1 or 2 per pole is typical)
- Current system wattage (usually replacing 400W or 1000W metal halide)
LED Fixture Options:
- 1000W Replacement LED: High-performance light with custom optics; delivers up to 30 foot-candles at standard mounting heights
- 150W LED Option: Ideal for replacing 400W metal halide systems; offers improved brightness and efficiency
- Floodlight with Visor: Includes a pipe mount and optional visor for dark sky compliance; great light distribution with specialized optics
