Light everything up is a flexible way to improve home security at night.
We want to improve the lighting in outside our residences, but, there are thousand of LED light fixtures on the market. Before adding the flood light to your cart for your particular purpose, consider these factors first: luminous flux, power sources, detection ways, installations and local climates.
Luminous flux - Lumen measure how much light you are getting from a bulb. It is the era of LED, we will consider lumens, not watts, when buying light bulbs. LED creates less heat but a wider area of brightness than incandescent lights with the same watts.
Feel confused? Let’s see the value comparison:

* Please note that these are sample figures for example purposes only & the actual output can vary.
Power sources - Electrical wires, solar-powered, or battery-powered.
Detection ways - Motion sensor or lighting sensor.
Installations - With or without tools, need or no need to connect with junction box.
Local climates - The waterproof rate of flood light usually vary from IP44-IP66, if the extreme weathers are common in your ares, then the weatherproof rate of the outdoor light should be the higher the better,
Compare the three great outdoor solar security lights various of categories to find the best suit.
