On the one hand, it is because there are many types of lamps, such as ceiling lamps, chandeliers, downlights, spotlights. , light strips, table lamps, etc., on the other hand, because the lighting industry itself is a high-profile and low-profile industry, users are familiar with it but do not understand it, plus the industry is indeed developing very fast, there is indeed a certain selection of lighting fixtures. It is normal to be confused by the purchasing skills. Good lamp and more lighting provide you with some selection tips.


In home decoration, downlights and spotlights are the most used. On the one hand, it is because auxiliary lighting such as downlights and spotlights are needed in the home. On the other hand, downlights are not limited by the decoration style. Basically, every decoration style is suitable for use. Downlights and spotlights, all styles take all, so that the downlights and spotlights are used the most. Not only that, downlight spotlights are also used a lot in commercial places, such as shopping malls, shops, office buildings, hotels, restaurants, etc. However, in the purchase, many owners are confused about the similarities and differences between the two.

Why choose LED downlights and LED spotlights? Because LED has many advantages, such as energy saving, environmental protection, no infrared and ultraviolet rays, pure light color, intelligent dimming and color matching, etc. Specifically, it can save energy by more than 90% than incandescent lamps, and save more than 50% energy than fluorescent lamps commonly used before. The lifespan is very long, the theoretical lifespan can reach 50,000 hours, and basically there is no need to change the lamp in a lifetime. Therefore, these advantages have led to LED becoming the mainstream, and incandescent lamps and fluorescent energy-saving lamps are being replaced one after another.


Downlights and spotlights are very similar in structure. They are composed of face rings, lamp bodies, radiators, light sources, power supplies, etc. The installation method is mostly embedded installation, that is, embedded in the ceiling, only the face ring is exposed, so as not to damage The integrity of the ceiling, the room is also very clean.


The biggest difference between downlights and spotlights is the difference in the angle of light, resulting in differences in structure!


Downlight: Mainly used to provide uniform light, just like sunlight, everything is illuminated! But the downlight cannot be as big as the sun, so it is designed from the angle of light emission. The light emission angle of the downlight is generally larger, usually around 120 degrees, and acrylic masks are commonly used, so that uniform light and light can be obtained. Soft and not harsh.


Spotlights: mainly through small-angle strong light to highlight key objects such as TV background walls, murals, ornaments, commodities, etc., or to increase the contrast of light and dark in the space to create an atmosphere, like a flagship store of big-name clothing, the contrast of light and dark is very strong. In order to achieve this effect, the light-emitting angle of the spotlight is generally small, usually 15-60 degrees, so that even if it has the same power and the same total amount of light as a downlight of the same kind, the irradiation area is small and the brightness is therefore high. . Structurally, spotlights often use lenses or reflector bowls to achieve small-angle concentrating light, and usually the irradiation angle can be adjusted, so that during installation, the irradiation object can be adjusted as needed.
