Q: What is Post Top Lighting?

Exterior lighting for streets, walks, parking lots , and campus illumination for both commercial and educational purposes is usually known as post-top lighting, LED pole lighting , or ornamental area lighting . This type of external lighting is normally installed vertically on poles and ranges in height from 7 to 20 feet. Metal Halide, High-Pressure Sodium, and Mercury Vapor Lamps, all types of High-Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps, are among the most extensively used post-top lighting applications today. A few instances of non-LED post-top lighting applications are shown below.

Question 2

What are the benefits of an LED Post Top Light Retrofit?

Accepted Answer

There are numerous advantages to upgrading your organization's post-top illumination to LED. Light Emitting Diodes, or LEDs, use a semiconductor to produce light. They do not require the use of a fuel source, such as an HID lamp. Multi-point sources are used in most LED pole lighting setups. This indicates that the fixtures have numerous diodes, each with its own optics. The results in illumination are more uniformly distributed across a surface as compared to the way HID lamps deliver light. Let's take a look at the three most prevalent advantages of an LED Retrofit.

1. Energy Conservation
LED pole lighting typically uses wattages ranging from 25 to 106 watts. This usually leads to a 40% to 80% reduction in energy use. This might result in annual electricity savings of up to $800 per fixture.

2. Performance of Lighting
The multi-point design of LED pole lighting fixtures produces a brilliant, evenly dispersed light pattern that is ideal for illuminating areas frequented by walkers and cars. The illumination will vary less throughout a given area, and the common bright spot created by HID lamps will be eliminated. LEDs come in a number of color temperatures in addition to equally distributed illumination. Providing a variety of ways to improve the visual impression of brightness.

3. Savings on maintenance
LEDs have a substantially longer functional lifespan due to the way they emit light. The light output of an LED will gradually deteriorate over time. As a result, their useful life can easily exceed 100,000 hours. The long life of the LED cuts down on the price of maintaining your post-top lighting. They could save you money on maintenance, especially if you need to employ a bucket truck or lift to keep your post-top lighting up to date.

Question 3

What does color temperature mean in lighting?

Accepted Answer

The color temperature, expressed in Kelvin (K), controls the color of light emitted. The whiter the color temperature, the higher the Kelvin. This is frequently portrayed as the white light's warmth (reddish) or coolness (bluish). Soft white, brilliant or cool white, and daylight are the three major color temperatures. Between 2700K and 3000K is soft white, between 3500K and 4100K is bright or cool white, and between 5000K and 6500K is daylight.
