THE MOST ADVANCED LED SPORTS LIGHTING TECHNOLOGY ON THE MARKET
How we do it
Sports lighting requires a different level of performance
LED lighting systems that are designed for parking lots and roadways are not adequate for delivering athletic level light performance.
​
HiLumz products optimize the latest LED chip sets, quality transformer technology, LED optical solutions, and heat management systems to deliver a well built, long lasting, and serviceable sports light system.
HOHow do offer a 7 & 10 year warranty?
Tested & rated life of over 100,000 hours
(11 years of continuous use. Or 25+ years if on 4 hours per day, everyday)
LEDs & Optics
Our products start with LED and optic selection. 5050 LEDs offer two major advantages. First, these are the longest life LEDs on the market and deliver amazing efficiency. We overpopulate the board and drive them at a high performance current. Second, the large chip set allows us to provide a large, deep optical package that direct the light where we need it.
In sports lighting, uniformity is as, or more important, than quantity.
Heat Management
One of the single most expensive components to an LED system is actually the aluminum housing that is used for heat sink. The scale, structure and density of that metal is fundamental for achieving extended life. Note that a 10 degree reduction in the temperature of the LED doubles the LEDs working life!
​
HiLumz products are tested in 3rd party USA laboratories.
Driving the System
LED drivers are used to convert a typical 277 or 480 VAC line to low voltage DC power. The lower DC voltage (between 26 and 52 Volts) and a constant current will properly power the LEDs. In converting the power, the drivers use a variety of components, including electrolytical capacitors, and can often generate quite a bit of heat. Cheap components fail and a failed driver is a failed light unit.
​
How do we mitigate this risk?
-
We use the best and often largest driver manufacturers on the market.
-
We include additional surge protection on each light unit. A driver is typically integrated with 3kV surge. We add 10kV external surge on each unit to protect the electrical system.
-
Lastly, all of our drivers are in large driver boxes which reduce heat and allow for easy maintenance of drivers and surge; in case of a failure.
