250 Watt Metal Halide – 100 Watt LED Equivalent for Replacement

Model No: LS-MH-250

The 250-Watt metal halide bulbs have various applications such as airport, warehouse, parking lot, retail stores, football pitch, tennis court, sports stadium and more. Replacement of 250W MH flood lamp with LED equivalent (100W) has a lot of advantages. These lights have a bright light output and they are mostly replaced for commercial use. They are available in horizontal and base-up form and can have a clear finish or a coated finish according to the requirements. The clear finish however, provides more light output while the coated finish gives a diffused light output. When comparing with LED with MH, LED does not need 250W MH ballast.

Applications of metal halide lamps (250W equivalent)

Metal halide lamps have different applications apart from general lighting. These lights are extensively being used in studios and filming industry because there is a requirement of high color temperature lights. Previously carbon arc lamps were used for metal halide lamps but now short arc metal halide lights are used. The short arc metal halide lights are energy efficient, improved color rendering index, and a long lifetime as compared to the carbon arc metal halide lights. Recently, the metal halide lights are being used for vehicle lighting because of the level of brightness required.

A number of manufacturing facilities, factories, warehouses, and industrial work spaces are equipped with 250-watt metal halide lights because they provide maximum brightness and can easily be used for high bay ceiling fixtures. These lights are used because they provide the required Lumen output and uniform light distribution which is required for commercial uses. 250W MH have a long life, of around 20,000 hours which is still less than the LED flood lights (100W equivalent) which have a lifespan of 80,000 hours before the replacement. While the metal halide lights have proven to be a good option for many commercial and industrial uses, the advent of the energy efficient LED technology has offered an energy efficient method of illumination.

Metal halide LED replacement

The LED lights are more long lasting as compared to the metal halides and they are easier to install too. The metal halide lamps will take double cost of labor for installation as compared to the high-wattage LED lights. The LED retrofit lights offer an easy way to replace the metal halide lamps and also offer high luminous output and incredible brightness. If you’re looking for LED HID retrofit lamp, you must consider the various types of LED lights available for this purpose.

If you’re going to replace the metal halide lamps with the high-wattage LED lights, consider removing the lens of the high-bay HID fixtures. If you don’t remove the lens, the equivalent 100 watt LED lamp will be fully enclosed and it won’t be able to give maximum out. LED lights can perform better in open fixtures and well-ventilated areas. Metal halide LED replacement is an easy task and there are any benefits of doing so. The LED lights offer instant on facilities which the metal halide lamps lack. The LED lights also offer lower energy costs as compared to the 250-watt metal halide lamps and thus they offer huge savings on electricity bills. It can be replaced with a 90 to 150 watt LED bulb. These LED lights can be switched on instantly without any flickering or warming up before providing illumination.
