Exterior Bulbs FAQs

Do outdoor bulbs require any special maintenance?

Outside light bulbs require minimal maintenance. Ensure they are installed correctly in weather-resistant fixtures, and check periodically for any signs of wear, moisture, and damage.

Are LED bulbs for outdoor lighting better than traditional bulbs?

Compared to conventional bulbs, LED bulbs are more energy-efficient, longer lasting, and offer numerous brightness and color temperature customization options, making them ideal for outdoor use. LEDs also include color changing options for more variety in your landscape lighting setup.

Can I use indoor bulbs for outdoor fixtures?

It’s best to use bulbs specifically designed for outdoor use. Outdoor bulbs, like the popular wedge LED bulbs, are built to withstand moisture, temperature fluctuations, and other environmental factors. Read The Ultimate Guide to Outdoor LED Bulbs to learn more.

How do I choose the right color temperature for outdoor lighting?

The right color temperature depends on the mood you want to create. Warmer temperatures, around 2700K–3000K, provide a cozy ambiance, while cooler temperatures in the 4000K–5000K range offer brighter, more vibrant lighting.

What’s the difference between T and MR bulbs?

The T, like our T3, T4, and T5 bulbs, are tubular and often used in linear fixtures, while MRs, like the MR8, MR11, and MR16 bulbs, are compact with multifaceted reflectors, making them ideal for directional lighting in smaller spaces.
