If your LED Outdoor Lights Bright Enough?

We’ve all had one of those free, or next to free LED flashlights that doesn’t give off enough light to help us see anything. So naturally, you might have some doubts about trusting LED lights to illuminate you exterior, especially at night. Unlike those cheap flashlights, LED outdoor lights – like floodlights, step lights, and wall pack lights – are created for important outdoor use. So, they’ll generate enough light to brighten your stairs, driveways, porches, paths, and yards, just like any other outdoor lights.

To be sure that you’ll get lights you can trust to work and to stand out in the dark, just check how many lumens your current outdoor lights emit (halogen, fluorescent, etc) and make sure your new lights have a similar number.

Lumens, unlike watts, measure the amount of light emitted by any light source. Watts just measure the amount of power that light uses. LEDs will always use fewer watts than other lights, but they’ll produce the same amount of light.

See our LED Model JMK-WP06, 18W with 2000lumens,  30W with 3300lumens.

Similar brightness levels, different wattages. So, when you’re picking out new outdoor lights, don’t shy away from LEDs because you don’t think they’re bright enough. If you do your research and check the lumens, you’ll find the right replacement, and probably save some energy in the process!
