How Many High Bay LED Lights Do I Need?
Figuring out how many high bay LED lights you need depends on a few key factors:
- Size of the Space
- Ceiling Height
- Building Usage
For ceilings 10 feet or lower, go with high bay LED lights around 100 watts, which deliver 10,000-12,000 lumens. If your ceilings are between 12-20 feet high, you’ll want lights in the 125-175 watt range, providing 12,000-21,000 lumens. For areas that need higher light levels and less glare, you can add reflectors and lenses to your UFO fixtures.
As the ceiling height increases, so should the wattage and lumen output:
- 8-10 feet: 80-100 watts (10,000-12,000 lumens)
- 12-20 feet: 125-175 watts (12,000-21,000 lumens)
- 18-25 feet: 200-300 watts (22,000-35,000 lumens)
- 20-30+ feet: 300-400 watts (35,000-47,000+ lumens)
When spacing out your high bay lights, here’s a general guide:
- 10-foot ceiling: Space lights 12-15 feet apart
- 20-foot ceiling: Space lights 15-19 feet apart
- 30+ foot ceiling: Space lights 19-35 feet apart
Remember, the exact number of lights you need also depends on the dimensions and purpose of the room or building. If you have specific needs or questions, it's always good to consult with a lighting specialist.
