Frequently asked questions about the Flood lamps category
Flood lamps — what are they and what are they used for?
Flood lamps are high-intensity directional light sources used to illuminate gardens, facades, stadiums, stages and work sites. Our range includes LED, solar and stage flood lamps with IP44–IP65 protection, power from 10W to 200W and luminous flux from about 550 lm to over 20,000 lm.
Which flood lamps are suitable for outdoor garden and yard lighting?
For outdoor use choose LED flood lamps with at least IP44 protection, preferably IP65 for exposed areas. Power 10–50W suits targeted garden lighting, 50W+ covers larger areas; colour temperature 4000K–6500K controls the light tone.
Which flood lamps are best for stage and events?
Stage lamps should have a focusable beam and high luminous output; e.g. V‑TAC SAMSUNG 150W models deliver 18–20k lm suitable for large venues. Choose adjustable beam angle, 4000–6400K colour temperature and compatibility with mounts or tripods.
What are battery (solar) flood lamps and when to choose them?
Battery/solar flood lamps include a built-in battery and/or solar panel, e.g. SOLAR VTAC‑25W and SOLAR VT‑55100. Choose them for sites without mains power, temporary lighting and energy savings; run time varies by model, typically 8–12 hours.
How to choose an LED flood lamp by power and luminous flux?
Base choice on area and purpose: 10–30W (~800–2400 lm) for entrances and small zones; 50W (~4500–5000 lm) for yards and work sites; 100W+ (8000–20,000+ lm) for stadiums and large facades. Check product specs—our catalogue lists lamps from ~550 lm to 22,960 lm.
Which flood lamps have motion sensors and how does that affect choice?
We offer PIR sensor models such as ENDURA 20W/830 IP44 PIR and NOVIPRO LED 30W+SENSOR. Motion sensors save energy and are ideal for entrances and pathways; choose units with adjustable sensitivity and run‑on time.
Can a flood lamp be mounted on a tripod and which models support this?
Yes — some lamps include a handle or tripod mount, e.g. 100W LED with handle and LED 2x50W on tripod kits. Check product descriptions for handle, mounting bracket or included tripod.
What IP rating is needed for a flood lamp used outdoors in the open?
For open outdoor use we recommend IP65, which protects against dust and water jets. IP44 is acceptable under a canopy or sheltered areas, but choose IP65 for facades and gardens for durability.
Flood lamp or flood lamps — what's the difference and which to choose?
That is just singular vs plural; there’s no technical difference. Choose based on purpose, power, IP rating and extra features (sensor, battery, mounting), not the grammatical form.
Which flood lamp brands are available and which models suit large sites?
We stock brands like Novipro, Acuma, Tope, V‑TAC and Osram. For large sites consider V‑TAC SAMSUNG 150W/18000 lm or 200W/22960 lm models — high output with IP65 protection.
