Lighting Solution for Billiard Table Lighting
I am searching for a lighting solution for my 4x9 billiard table. The glare and eye strain from the lighting we have now are just awful. What options do you recommend?
Based on the details that you provided, you might be interested in our NorthLux™ 95 CRI LED Shop Light Fixture, which is designed to hang from the ceiling using the included chain and hook.
That being said, the cool 5000K and 6500K color temperatures that the product is available in may not be as warm as you might hope for the installation area.
I also noticed that you sell two different high CRI bulbs that would fit that fixture. One is the Northlux. The other is the Centrick Daylight. Can you compare and contrast the two for my application?
Some experts in GB studied this and concluded that 5500k was optimal for billiards. I am thinking that swapping out a couple of them for the 6500k might bring me closer to this. Or is my thinking off? You hinted that I may not like the bulbs in a range near 5000K.
Most of the companies in the USA and GB which sell high-end billiard lights are putting parabolic louvers below the lights to further diffuse and reduce glare. And all of them are cheap and use 80 CRI high-lumen bulbs or using a flat panel. And even then, they put the louver below it. I can not find a flat panel light with a high CRI. I do not think the flat panel was made for my application.
While we can confirm that we sell both the Northlux and Centric products, it might be helpful to know that the LED Shop Light fixture utilizes pre-installed LED Strip Lights rather than lightbulbs. We do apologize for any confusion that the product page may have caused.
If you would like to make direct product comparisons between the two color temperature options, please note that we offer a 30-day return policy for all orders, and are happy to provide prepaid return labels for unneeded products.
If traditional A19 lightbulbs are instead preferred, you may find value in the 5600K FilmGrade™ Flicker-Free A19 LED Bulb, as this option is the closest in our catalog to the 5500K color point referenced.
