Some lights are very floody (i.e. not accurate), and others aren't. You can't say it's "50% of the light", as that depends on the quality of the light. Some have "halos" (for want of a better word) too, which is annoying to look at, to be honest. If you do what I suggested, and give it a bit of overlap, even with a fixture giving halos, it will soften up the effect, and you will have proper lighting without feeling you're going from one light beam to another when traversing the living room. Re: Advice on these led lights please? 14Jul 22, 2013 3:00 pm The beam angle "should" be measured at half lux which is 50% of the light. Since a lot of companies are using lenses now the light is quite controllable, which can give all sorts of distribution. Quite a few being the halo variety Re: Advice on these led lights please? 15Jul 23, 2013 6:14 pm Thanks everyone for your advice! I think we will stick with the larger led lights. in the long run they will be better for us and also will save a little more on installation as there won't be as many to install Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=66238&p=1053710#p1053710 |
