What is the difference between street lights and landscape lights

Street lights and landscape lights are easy to see in cities. Although both have the same lighting function, there are many differences between the two. What is the difference between them?

1. Different heights

The conventional height of street lamps is 6-12 meters, and some street lamps have a conventional height of 6-20 meters. However, the general height of landscape lights is 3-6 meters. This is because landscape lights are ornamental and do not need to be too high. The higher the material, the more materials are needed, and the more expensive the cost.

2. Different lighting power

The lighting power of street lamps will generally be relatively large, in the range of 250-400W, and should be considered according to factors such as the width of the road, the surrounding trees, the height of the light pole, and whether it affects the surrounding residents.

The lighting power of landscape lights is relatively small, generally 80-150W, and may be smaller. This is because the landscape lamp has a basic lighting effect. Its biggest function is to be more ornamental. Its light source power can reflect the overall shape of the lamp, and it does not need to be too bright.

3. Different applications

Street lights are generally used in urban or rural main roads, secondary roads, urban squares, residential areas, etc., and lighting needs are generally relatively large.

Landscape lights are generally installed in independent areas, such as parks, gardens, high-end residential areas, commercial pedestrian streets, and leisure squares. Landscape lights also appear in many tourist attractions.

4. Different functions

The main function of street lights is to illuminate, to provide better illumination brightness for pedestrians and vehicles. However, the landscape lights only need basic lighting. The main thing is ornamental, which is used to decorate the surrounding environment and create an atmosphere.

The shape of street lamps is not so diverse, generally there are several. However, there are many, many shapes of landscape lights, very casual and unconstrained. It can be customized according to the surrounding environment and special reasons.
