How to Choose the Best Spot Lights: A Guide

March 22, 2022

 

Never underestimate the power and usefulness of light. Whether you need a lighting system for your garage workshop, or spot lights on your vehicle to help you see better at night, there are tons of options.

And all the different types of lights serve different purposes. They excel in different areas. And you’ll likely need a combination of different lights to help you with all your goals at home, work, or on the road.

One thing everyone needs is a spot light, however. And choosing the best light is important to do. How do you choose a good spotlight? We cover that and more down below, so keep reading.

Benefits of Spot Lights

Spotlights are unique in that they concentrate all of the light in one small spot. The light is strong, and it helps you to illuminate the exact object or location you need to focus on.

They are different from floodlights, which are intended to flood an entire area with light. Rather than strong, directed light, there’s a wider angle and more dispersed, soft lighting.

Floodlights are good for lighting up a small construction zone or a backyard workshop.

You can commonly see the benefit of a spotlight at a concert or event. To add a dramatic effect, a spotlight can illuminate just one person or item on a stage without lighting up the rest of the stage. This can help them stand out and draw attention to that one spot.

Likewise, spotlights can be used outdoors when tracking animals or on police cars when following a vehicle or even a criminal on foot.

Choosing the Best Lights

What makes for the best spotlights? You definitely want an LED light. LED lights have become the standard.

They might be a bit more expensive upfront, but they will last much longer than traditional lightbulbs. LED lights can often last a decade. And they use far less power, making your batteries last longer.

With LED lights, you can get brighter lights that use less power. Brightness is measured in lumens, and spotlights tend to be some of the brightest.

Another benefit of LED lights over halogen lights is the color options. With LED spotlights, you can select different lighting temperatures and light colors. Color Kinetics has tons of different options for those looking to get creative with their lighting system.

The size and shape of the light are also important. The more narrow the light fixture, the more direct and concentrated the light will be.

There are various angle options depending on the application. Often, spotlights in the home tend to be wider. Spotlights used in theaters or as outdoor security lighting tend to have narrower angles.

LED Spotlights for Every Application

Spot lights are some of the most useful lighting options. They can be used in the home, outside, for commercial applications, and for survival needs.

To be the most effective, always choose LED spotlights. And test different colors, temperatures, and levels of brightness to determine which option is best for you.
