1. Small range and use: family courtyards, entrances, porches, 20-30 watt LED floodlights are enough to provide warm lighting.


2. Medium areas: parks, commercial areas, parking lots, small squares, 30-50 watt LED floodlights, ensure uniform lighting, depending on the specific site size adjustment.


3. Large space: sports field, square, large parking lot, airport, 100w, 150w, 200w or above LED floodlight, or even higher, according to the need for high illumination and distance adjustment.


4. Billboard: Floodlight, 10-50 watts, depending on the size of the billboard and the night effect, too bright will interfere.


5. Landscape: flexible, 30-100 watts, emphasis, decoration, depending on the effect and atmosphere creation, low wattage is more energy-efficient.


Consider the luminosity requirements, beam angle, uniformity, not just wattage when choosing. High-efficiency LED can provide the same illumination with low wattage. Consider the environment, such as high light pollution restrictions, and use lamps with less light pollution. Intelligent control and dimming systems can adjust the light intensity as needed, which is more energy-efficient. Finally, consult a professional lighting designer or manufacturer to customize the plan according to the actual project.
