How to Choose Lights for Indoor Badminton Courts

Badminton is one of the most popular sports in the world. It is a small ball game that is loved by the public. This sport can be practiced and improved at your own pace and rhythm without compromising your enjoyment of the sport. With the development of the sports industry, sports venues have gradually become popular, and where there are sports venues, there is sports lighting.

Many people will ask how to choose lighting fixtures. First of all, there is data that we must know, that is the installation height. Generally speaking, the installation height will be in the range of 6 to 12 meters, of which 6 to 9 meters appear relatively frequently. The international standard for badminton courts is more than 9m, but amateur courts will be lower than this height.

Then, we can think about the needs of customers. In fact, they need to solve the following problems: the problem of glare; lux level & uniformity can reach or not; how to choose the color temperature, CRI and whether the service life is long enough. The installation height of 6 to 9 meters belongs to the relatively short installation height of sports lighting. So how to solve the glare problem? We need to choose a light will not be dazzling even if we see the luminous surface when playing. At the same time, adjusting the position of the lamps can basically solve the glare problem.

There is no need to worry about whether it can reach the lux level & uniformity. As long as you give us the detailed site size map, our engineers will use the software to do a DIALux simulation, and we will know how many lights you need to install to reach the projects’ standards, it's very easy.

As for the color temperature and color rendering index, we recommend 5700K, RA80, which is easier to see the shape of the object, the real color, and the texture. The service life and the quality of lighting fixtures are also very important, and the failure rate should not be too high, otherwise, it will be troublesome to maintain.

So do we have suitable lamps to solve such problems? Here I recommend a lamp specially used for indoor lighting: LHB09. This is independently designed by us, and the wattage ranges from 100W to 480W. For indoor badminton courts, 100W/150W is very suitable, the power is relatively small, and the 4-in-1 lens can control the UGR well and solve the glare problem perfectly.
