To find the beam width from a given distance use this simple formula.
15 degree beam angle.
Lamps such as halogens and some leds come in a variety of angles from 4 degree to 60 degree with some of the larger halogen lamps up to 120 degree.
A narrow beam gives a concentrated light which is better for accent lighting.
Cree bpar30l 0853025c 12de26 1c100 75w equivalent bright white 3000k par30 long neck 25 degree spot dimmable led light bulb.
However if both spotlights have different beam angles about 15 and 60 this puts the perceived brightness into perspective.
This item par30 15 watt long narrow flood beam led bulb with 25 degree beam angle in white.
A wide beam gives a more general softer light.
The beam angle is then determined in degrees see below.
The beam angle does not tell all the story.
At 8 to 15 degrees for an mr16 or 16 to 30 degrees for a par lamp the reflector casts a beam slightly less focused than a vnsp.
The spotlight with a beam angle of 60 must illuminate a much larger area with the same light output as the 15 spotlight.
It is impotant to know that the light continues to spread out into what is called the beam field.
Philips led mr16 dimmable 15 degree airflux spot light bulb.
Most led lights are available in a choice of beam angles.
Philips mr16 airflux led spot light bulbs provide 380 lumens of bright crisp white dimmable light at a focused 15 degree beam angle equivalent to 35 watt halogens at 1 5 of the energy consumption.
Angle of beam x 018 x distance beam spread.
How to measure beam spread.
Ranging from a very narrow 15 degrees spot to a wider 60 degrees flood.
Beam angle indicates the spread of light from the light source.
Just plug in the numbers into the formula shown above.
120 x 018 x 15 32 4.
Not for use with philips hue products.
The most common designations for flood light beams are spot 7 to 15 degree flood 20 to 30 degrees and wide flood 35 plus degrees.
380 lumen 2700 kelvin 7 watt 35 watt equivalent gu5 3 bi pin.
A wide variety of 15 degree beam angle led spotlight options are available to you such as lighting and circuitry design auto cad layout and project installation.
For this reason the illuminated surface appears larger but also much darker.
Let s say you need to know the beam spread of a 120 degree floodlight from a distance of 15 feet.
You can also choose from hotel office and residential 15 degree beam angle led spotlight as well as from 5w 7w and 10w 15 degree beam angle led spotlight and whether 15 degree beam angle led spotlight is ce ccc or bv.
