Spot & flood light bulbs deliver targeted brightness and wide-area coverage for projects that demand precision and safety. Spots focus a narrow beam to highlight architectural features, signage, and task areas; floods spread light across driveways, yards, warehouses, and parking bays. Choose LED options for high lumens per watt, lower heat, and long service life, replacing halogen PAR and MR lamps with immediate energy savings.

Popular formats include GU10 and MR16 for track and recessed accent lighting, and PAR20, PAR30, PAR38, BR30, and BR40 for cans and outdoor fixtures with E26/E27 bases. Match beam angle to the job: 10–25° for tight accenting, 25–40° for general spot tasks, and 60–120° for flood coverage. Select color temperature to set the mood and visibility: 2700–3000K warm for patios and hospitality, 3500–4000K neutral for retail and offices, 5000–6500K daylight for security and task clarity. Aim for high CRI (90+) to render colors accurately on displays and landscaping.

For outdoor and security lighting, check IP and UL wet/damp ratings, corrosion-resistant housings, and enclosed-fixture approval. Motion sensor and photocell compatibility supports dusk-to-dawn operation, while smart bulbs with Wi‑Fi, Zigbee, or Bluetooth integrate with voice control and automation. Dimmable models must pair with compatible LED dimmers to prevent flicker.

Planning tips: size lumens to distance (e.g., 1200–2000 lm for 15–25 ft mounting heights), position floods to overlap beams and reduce shadows, and angle spots at 30° to minimize glare on walls and art. For pathways and facades, shield lights to limit uplight and protect dark skies. In cold climates, choose LEDs rated for sub‑zero starts.

Upgrade your track lighting, recessed cans, and outdoor fixtures with efficient spot and flood bulbs to enhance curb appeal, boost security, and cut maintenance. From landscape accents to warehouse bays, the right beam, color, and wattage deliver reliable, professional results every night.
