What are LED sport lights

In general, LED sport lights are very powerful. Most of them are mounted at tall heights with smaller beam angles. And the combination of tall mounted heights and smaller beam angles contribute to higher light intensity, allowing the powerful light to reach the ground. The aim of LED sport lights is to increase visibility for players and spectators. Good LED sport lights can provide low glare, sufficient, and uniform lighting. To meet the requirements of TV broadcasting of some sport events, LED sports lights must be of high CRI and TLCI. Furthermore, to avoid the light trespass or pollution to surrounding areas, LED sport lights are specially designed to prevent backlight, spill light, and up-light.

Benefits of switching sport lights to LED

Compared to traditional light sources, LED sport lights are energy-efficient, long-lasting, and cost-saving. Here are main benefits of switching sport lights to LED:

Save costs

LED sport lights have high energy efficiency. LEDs consume up to 80% less energy than conventional light sources. This helps to cut down energy costs effectively. In addition, LED sports lights have a longer lifespan and lower maintenance. The functional lifespan of LED sport lights can reach 50,000 hours. The long lifespan also in turn reduces the maintaining costs.

Better lighting performance

LED sport lights feature better lighting performance with more uniform lighting and a wider range of color temperatures. They are ideal for large sport fields due to their evenly distributed light pattern. Uniform lighting distribution boosts overall lighting experience. LED sport lights are available in a range of color temperature as well. With the light color that is similar to natural daylight, players and spectators feel more comfortable.

Enhance performance of players

Good LED sport lights allow players to have clearer visions and then they can judge the track of balls and the environment precisely. With sufficient, uniform, and comfortable lighting, players can concentrate on the game and react precisely. Thus, LED sport lights can strengthen the performance of players.

How to choose the best LED sport lights

Best LED sport lights fit your sport fields well. Regardless of outdoor or indoor sporting areas, here are several factors to consider when choosing LED sport lights. If it is too complex, just contact our lighting experts, they will provide the best sport lighting solutions for your projects.

Proper Illumination

With proper illumination, audiences will have a more pleasant experience as they are clear about how wonderful the game is. Players can judge the height and landing point of the ball more accurately to improve their game performance. Referees are able to make more accurate judgments and improve the fairness and impartiality of the game. Moreover, the illuminations for practice and match are different. Professional competitions often have higher requirements for illumination.

Impact resistance

It is critical to ensure that the lights can work properly even if they are damaged or broken because of a certain degree of impact by balls and other objects. Otherwise, people will be hurt or plugged in darkness. Thus, when we choose fixtures for sporting areas, pay attention to the IK code of them. IK Code applies to the level of protection from external mechanical impact for enclosures of electrical equipment. The higher the rating, the better impact resistance.

Minimum light pollution

Most outdoor sport places are located near residential areas, so strict requirements of lighting angles and coverage are presented to protect people around from disturbing as over brightness that would be harmful to eyes. Choosing the LED sport lights with perfect light control can minimize light pollution.  

High CRI

CRI (Color Rendering Index) is the ability to reflect the true color of the item. The closer the color rendering index is to 100, the more natural the colors of the object will appear. The LED lights with the ability to reveal the exact color of the objects are important in sport areas. It can not only promote accuracy for players to judge the track of flying ball, the location of themselves and the surrounding environment , but also offer a clearer vision for audiences.

Any sport lighting solution for HDTV live broadcasting

Here is an example of our solution for HDTV broadcasting: TLCL + CRI 90 + flicker free.

TLCI means Television Lighting Consistency Index. This is an evaluation parameter created specifically for television broadcasting. We all understand the color rendering index CRI. TLCI and Ra are both identification value for the true color restoration of an object. The higher TLCI and CRI, the better the light quality and the more real it is. 

AGC sport lighting solution for HDTV broadcasting:

• As long as we use the appropriate led chips for suitable sports lights, there is no problem to obtain TLCI≥90.
• Make sure the solution with driver Ripple factor<2%, and then no worry about flicker.

Do you have lighting solution to achieve Minimum URL

Yes, we do. AGC provides customized sports lighting solutions to meet your needs of different projects.

Take LED sport lights for football as an example. A typical European amateur football ground will be around 106x70m - open sided, with lighting from 4 or 6 posts between 16 to 18m high, each placed 3m from the marked area. The stated lighting level required is 120 lux for the life of the product, which equates to an initial requirement of >150 lux and a distribution of >0.5 Emin/Eave from a measuring grid 21x13; plus >(Eave x0.75) in front of the goals. We develop an asymmetric LED sports light SP02, thanks to its unique structural and optic design, it can achieve max offset asymmetric beam 65°, meanwhile it has 1200W with minimal ULR.
