How Can We Help?
Red LED Lights for Gym Lighting
We have fluorescent bulb lighting in our gym. Approx 3500 sq ft. We wanted a safe red light for night classes and to avoid using fluorescent and blue-green spectrum LED lighting. What would you recommend for us? Whether it’s bulbs or LED strips?
Based on the details provided, we might recommend our SimpleColor™ Red LED Strip Lights product. These strip light products are compatible with dimmers and can be easily mounted in spaces within channels such as the Aluminum Channel for LED Flex Strip products.
How many strips would I need to fully light the 3500 sq ft room?
As the SimpleColor Red LED Strip Lights are generally not used for visibility, it can be difficult to estimate the item quantity that would be required to allow for full visibility in the space.
Generally speaking, we would say that a 3500-square-foot exercise space would be fully illuminated with 130,981 lumens. This light output would be possible through utilizing seventeen 16.4 ft (5 meters) reels of LED Strip Lights such as our FilmGrade™ WHITE LED Strip Lights, which offer 450 lumens per foot. However, as the lumen output of the SimpleColor LED strip lights is quite different, that quantity may not directly track.
For your installation, we might recommend purchasing a smaller quantity and testing the output in the space order to see whether a larger order quantity would illuminate the area to your liking, and provide the ideal level of visibility.
