    About Brightness and Light Appearance
    industrial info icon

    Find the right lumen level to brighten your space. Then, compare the way warm, neutral, and cool lighting affect the appearance of everyday objects.

    Screw-In-Base Floodlight and Spotlight Bulbs

    Light up large areas or spotlight an object. These bulbs suit recessed cans and outdoor floodlights. Light is brightest at beam center and roughly half as bright at the edges. All are shatterproof plastic.
    Use the light appearance to match older bulbs in your facility.
    PAR38 Bulb Shape—Medium (Standard Household) Base (1 1/16" Dia.)
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Light Bulbs. Screw-In-Base Floodlight and Spotlight Bulbs, PAR38 Bulb Shape.
    PAR bulbs throw tighter, farther-reaching spotlight beams, like those in outdoor security systems.
    Warm (2,700 K)—A 2,700K (warm) light appearance resembles incandescent bulbs.
    Warm (3,000 K)—A 3,000K (warm) light appearance resembles halogen bulbs.
    Adjustable Beam Angle—PAR bulbs with an adjustable beam angle switch between narrow, medium, and wide flood beams.
    App Controlled—App-controlled bulbs offer the most flexibility: a free Wi-Fi app dials in any white temperature or color, toggles power, and runs schedules.
    Dim-to-Warm—Dim-to-warm bulbs mimic museum-quality halogen bulbs—they make colors appear vibrant, won’t flicker, and reduce eye strain.
    Selectable Light Appearance—If you aren't sure what you need, pick a bulb with a selectable light appearance.
    Cannot Be Sold To—Bulbs that cannot be sold to the listed areas are restricted due to energy efficiency requirements, mercury regulations, and product registration requirements.
