What is the difference between wall washer and line lamp

What is the difference between a wall washer and a linear light? Many customers and friends who are new to lighting and lighting are usually confused about the difference between "wall washer" and "line light", because the shape looks like a long strip of lamps; but from the application scene and lighting effect Generally speaking, there is still a big difference between the two. Here, "Shoshi Lighting" will give you a brief introduction: 1. Apply lighting effects: The wall washer is to let the light wash the wall like water. The principle is to adjust the emission angle of the light through the light distribution of the secondary lens, control the irradiation range of the light so that the light shines on the wall; and the application method of the floodlight It is almost the same, but the effect will be softer, and it belongs to "surface light" from the effect. Line lights are mainly used to outline buildings, or multiple light bars are arranged and combined to form a large dynamic full-color light bar screen; from the perspective of the luminous effect of the lamps, it is a typical line-type decorative light source. (Sober Optoelectronics Note: Of course, the linear light can also be installed on the corner of the wall so that the light can shine on the wall, but this lighting effect is quite different from that of professional wall washer, and it is generally seldom used) 2. Specifications and parameters: Most wall washers are high-power products, while line lights are mostly low-power; because wall washers need to consider the range and height of the irradiation, there is usually a certain distance between the lamp and the wall, and high-power wall washers are competent; Lamps are used for contour decorative lighting, and generally low power can meet the needs.

It is more difficult for wall washer to dissipate heat and waterproof, and design of drainage and convection heat dissipation should be considered; in the production process of LED wall washer, glue filling treatment must be carried out first, and then glass glue should be glued on the glass cover to achieve structural waterproofing; The power of the linear light is lower, and the heat dissipation will be relatively simple. 3. Product appearance: The wall washer is equipped with a secondary optical lens. Another very intuitive point is that the LED wall washer has a mounting bracket, which can adjust the angle freely to meet its own application requirements; and in terms of size, there are many wall washers. Large size, while linear lights are generally smaller; LED linear lights are mostly square in appearance, while LED wall washers are more diversified in appearance design because of their brackets.
