PIXTER lighting guides · Updated 10 October 2026
Choose an LED light by the area you need to illuminate, the mounting arrangement and the light distribution. Street lights are a starting point for roads and lanes; UFO high bays suit high-ceiling workspaces; floodlights are a starting point for exterior areas. Wattage alone does not tell you how much useful light will reach a surface.
Which LED light is right for your space?
| Range | Planning application | Published power options | Compare |
|---|---|---|---|
| Street light | Access roads, lanes and circulation areas | 20–24W, 30–36W, 50W, 100W | LED street light specifications |
| UFO high bay | Warehouses, workshops and high-ceiling spaces | 50W, 100W, 150W, 200W, 250W | UFO high bay specifications |
| Floodlight Model 1 | Exterior lighting and open-area plans | 30W, 50W, 100W, 150W, 200W | Model 1 specifications |
| Floodlight Model 2 | Alternative housing for exterior-lighting plans | 30W, 50W, 100W, 150W, 200W | Model 2 specifications |
These are catalogue options, not a guarantee of suitability for every installation. Confirm the exact variant, environmental rating, beam distribution and mounting arrangement for your site.
Five specifications to check before you choose
- Light output and distribution. Ask for lumen output and the beam information for your selected fixture. Two lights with the same wattage can produce different light levels and coverage.
- Mounting height and spacing. A fixture schedule should account for the mounting position, obstructions and areas where light is actually needed.
- Environmental suitability. Check the stated IP rating, operating-temperature range and corrosion suitability. A product image cannot establish weather resistance.
- Electrical and housing details. Compare the specified input voltage, power factor, surge rating, dimensions and weight for the exact variant.
- Commercial terms. Confirm current price, stock, warranty, delivery and installation responsibilities before ordering.
Wattage, lumens and lux: what is the difference?
Watts describe electrical power. Lumens describe light output. Lux describe illumination reaching a surface. To choose a light for a task, start with the required illumination and layout, then compare fixtures. Selecting the highest wattage can add cost without solving glare, shadows or uneven coverage.
Buying one light or buying in bulk?
For an individual requirement, share the space dimensions, mounting height, delivery city and preferred product. For a business or project, include a fixture schedule, quantities by wattage, operating hours and site conditions. A clear brief makes quotations easier to compare and helps identify missing specifications early.
Request an individual or bulk lighting quotation. Your enquiry can include multiple ranges; pricing and availability are confirmed against your requirement.
Common questions
Is a high bay the same as a floodlight?
No. A high bay is intended for elevated interior-lighting layouts, while a floodlight is generally selected for directed area-lighting plans. Compare the fixture’s beam, mounting and environmental suitability rather than treating equal wattages as interchangeable.
Can I choose a light using wattage alone?
No. You also need light output, beam distribution, mounting height, spacing and the needs of the area. Request a suitable lighting layout for a project.
Are all PIXTER floodlights weatherproof?
Do not assume an IP rating from the image or product category. Confirm the published rating for the exact model and wattage before selecting an outdoor installation.
