Flexible Silicone Extrusion led wall washer light

A silicone extrusion LED strip, also called a silicone extrusion light strip, uses silicone as the outer shell material to encapsulate LED chips inside the silicone through extrusion technology, forming a strip-shaped light strip. Manufacturers produce silicone extrusion LED strips with waterproof, dustproof, and high-temperature resistance properties, and they find wide application in indoor and outdoor decorative lighting, architectural lighting, landscape lighting, and other fields. Silicone extrusion LED strips also offer the advantages of flexibility, easy installation, and a long service life.

Comparing the flexible led wall washing light with the traditional wall washing light

Design and application distinguish traditional wall washer lights from flexible wall washer lights. Traditional wall washer lights have a fixed and rigid design, with a directional beam of light that aims at a specific area or surface. They commonly illuminate large walls or architectural features such as columns or sculptures in commercial or public spaces. Manufacturers design these lights to provide a strong and consistent beam of light with high brightness and intensity.

In contrast, flexible wall washer lights have an adaptable and versatile design. They feature a flexible material like silicone, that can contour and shape to fit different surfaces and angles. These lights typically serve accent lighting or decorative purposes, such as highlighting a curved or irregular wall or creating a unique lighting effect in a residential or commercial space. Although flexible wall washer lights generally have lower brightness and intensity than traditional wall washer lights, they offer greater flexibility and creative possibilities.

Different beam angle of led wall washing light

The angle of a wall washer light refers to the degree to which the beam of light focuses away from the surface it illuminates. Different angles produce different effects, depending on the desired outcome.

A narrow beam angle, typically between 10 and 20 degrees, highlights specific features or details on a wall, such as artwork or architectural elements. This type of angle creates a focused and intense beam of light that draws attention to a specific area.

A medium beam angle, typically between 30 and 45 degrees, serves general wall washing or illuminating larger areas of a wall. This type of angle creates a broader beam of light that covers a wider area and is useful for creating an even and consistent wash of light across a surface.

A wide beam angle, typically between 60 and 120 degrees, creates a diffuse and ambient lighting effect. This type of angle produces a soft and gentle beam of light that provides a gentle glow across a large area, and it is useful for creating a relaxing or comfortable atmosphere in a space.

In summary, the angle of a wall washer light determines the width and intensity of the beam of light and can be used to achieve different lighting effects and moods.

Wall washing effect and wall grazing effect

The effect of a wall washer light refers to the visual impact that the light creates on the surface it illuminates. Wall washer lights commonly create a range of lighting effects, including:

Highlighting: Wall washer lights can highlight specific features or details on a wall, such as artwork or architectural elements. This effect draws attention to the highlighted area and creates a focal point.

Grazing: Grazing is a technique where the wall washer light mounts close to the surface and aims parallel to the wall. This creates a dramatic effect that emphasizes the texture and depth of the surface and can be used to create a sense of movement or drama.

Wall washing: Wall washing is a technique where the wall washer light aims at the wall at an angle, creating an even and consistent wash of light across the surface. This effect can create a bright and welcoming atmosphere in a space or enhance the colors and textures of a wall.

In summary, the effect of a wall washer light depends on the technique and application used and can range from highlighting specific features to creating a dramatic or ambient atmosphere.
