Beam Angles and how they help us in choosing the most suitable LED Lights.
This article will throw light on the concept of “Beam Angle” and how it can be used as a tool to help in selecting the right LED light for your specific requirements.

Now the question is what is LED Beam Angle?
Beam angle can be defined as the degree of width that light emits from a light source. The beam angle of luminaries will vary according to its design and construction. The brightest spot from a LED Light source is directly below it. As the light spreads, the intensity decreases. This can be illustrated by a simple cone. In specific terms, this is the angle between the opposing points on the beam axis where the intensity drops to 50% of its maximum value. It can also defined by diagram below.

Beam Angles make a significant difference in the lamp and this angle defines the application and the nomenclature also.
Like the highest concentration of light is known as “Spot” and widest light spread is called “Floods”.
LED Lights come with a variety of description for the beam angle. A wider beam angle floods an area with lights are known as Flood Lights, where as a narrow beam angle is a spot of light called Spot Lights.
