Heutzutage, more and more people prefer using LED swimming pool lights to replace incandescent lamps, Schwimmbadlichter mit LED -Lichtquellen haben eine viel größere Zuverlässigkeit, längere Betriebsdauer, und geringere Betriebskosten. Was mehr ist, LED-Poolleuchten ermöglichen dynamischere Farbwechseleffekte per Fernbedienung oder DMX-Steuerung.

Jedoch, wenn Leute Schwimmbadbeleuchtungen kaufen, Sie werden bei der Wahl der LED-Schwimmbadbeleuchtung etwas verwirrt sein, Es gibt zwei Arten von LED-Lichtquellen: SMD oder Hochleistungs-LED (normalerweise 1w/pc). Was ist der Unterschied zwischen ihnen?? was für Pools besser ist? Hier geben wir einige Tipps.

  1. Was ist eine Hochleistungs-LED-Schwimmbadleuchte??

Hochleistungschips wurden in der Vergangenheit häufig in Schwimmbadbeleuchtungen eingesetzt, normalerweise, Der Chip hat 1W pro Stück, wie eine 18-W-Schwimmbadleuchte, Meistens verfügt es über 18 Stück 1-W-LED-Chips. Bei den meisten leistungsstarken Poolleuchten befindet sich die Linse auf den Chips, normalerweise Linsenwinkel 30° oder 45°.

2. Was ist eine SMD-Schwimmbadleuchte??

SMD ist die Abkürzung für Surface Mounted Device, SMD size is much smaller than normal LED. Auch, take an 18W swimming pool light as an example, it can have 36pcs 5730 chips, each chip is 0.5W. SMD pool lights won’t have the lens on them, the light output angle is 120°.

Some main differences between high power LED & SMD swimming pool lights:

NO.1 Focusing on the swimming pool lights housing structure, high power led designed swimming pool lights can be changed into SMD types, but not all the SMD designed pool lights can be changed into high power led types, because there may be not enough space for the lens height.

NO.2 Lighting output angle, as mentioned above, high power led swimming pool light will have an angle of 30° or 45°, while SMD swimming pool lights have 120°angle.

NO.3 As they have different lighting output angles, the lighting effects underwater are different. High power led swimming pool light performs like a spotlight, the lighting output is narrow. SMD swimming pool light performs like a bulb, the lighting output is wide.

NO.4 SMD swimming pool lights will have a higher lumen output efficiency than high-power led pool lights.

So, how to make choice to use a normal led or SMD swimming pool light? Based on the market feedback and lighting effects, our suggestions are below:

  1. For small size swimming pools, people can use SMD swimming pool lights, because the pool is small, the lighting distance is short, SMD pool lights with wide lighting output angles can satisfy the whole pool area.
  2. For big size or long shape swimming pool lights, we suggest using the normal LED swimming pool lights, the spotlighting effect can make the pool with more visual stereo.
  3. If people require more lumen output, they can choose SMD swimming pool lights. We can see a 30% lumen output efficiency difference. SMD swimming pool light lumen efficiency is 80lm/w while normal LED swimming pool light is 60lm/w.
  4. Of course, people can choose the lamp based on what they prefer.
