LED Retrofit Kit Light - 150 Watt - Replace 525 Watt Metal Halide - IP65 - Ultra Efficient 20000 Lumens - >80 CRI - CE, RoHS Listed - DLC Qualified - Commercial Lighting - 50000 Long Life Span - 5 Years Warranty
LED retrofit kits are the best replacement for metal halides if you do not want to spend money on fixtures.HIDs are of two types: metal halide and sodium-based lamps. The main difference between them is of colors; sodium-based bulbs are orange in color while metal halide is white in color.
The most basic reasons for you to switch to LEDs from metal halide fixtures might be;
- LED-based bulbs consume 75% less energy than metal halides, yet produce better colors and brightness.
- HID bulbs render terrible colors, LEDs on the other hand, render colors compared to those rendered by natural daylight.
- LED lights have a life of up to 50,000 hours, whereas metal halides have a total life of 15,000 hours only.
The direction is more important than intensity. I bet you didn't know that you do not need a lot of lumens, you need lumens in the right directions. The biggest problem with any conventional lighting is that they emit omnidirectional light. Reflectors are used to give the light a direction, which can dampen the strength of light by 30%

Better CRI
LED lights have a better CRI, or the ability to render better colors. If you compare the CRIs of metal halides and LED corn bulbs side by side, you will see a shocking difference.
If lumens is the quantity that measures light intensity, CRI represents the quality of lights. CRI varies from 0 to 100. Ten thousand lumens from LED lights are better than 30,000 lumens from metal halides.
LED Lights Have Better Life And Do Not Suffer color Decay
Metal halides lose half of their peak brightness in 5,000 hours. The quality of colors(CRI) also goes down with time.
LED lights, on the other hand, retain much of its best for a more extended period of time. You can replace a 400 watts metal halide with this 150 watts LED retrofit kit, without making any changes to the current circuitry.
As time goes on, an unpleasant color shift occurs in the metal halides. For example, white-colored light of metal halide turns bluish gradually.
LED Lights have Superb Energy Efficiency
Lumen efficiency of 150W LED retrofit kit = 20,000 lumens/150 watts= 130 lumens/watt
Lumen efficiency of 400W metal halide = 20,000/400 = 50 lumens/watt.
Numbers speak louder than words. 150W LED retrofit kit 2.5 times more efficient.
LED Retrofit Kits Are IP65 Rated
LED retrofit kits are IP65 rated for outdoor usage. These fixtures are dust and water-resistant, which is not the case with most of the metal halides. can replace a 400 watts metal halide with this 150 watts LED retrofit kit, without making any changes to the current circuitry.
As time goes on, an unpleasant color shift occurs in the metal halides. For example, white-colored light of metal halide turns bluish gradually.
LED Retrofit Kits Are IP65 Rated
LED retrofit kits are IP65 rated for outdoor usage. These fixtures are dust and water-resistant, which is not the case with most of the metal halides.
Rebate Elligible
This fixture is rebate eligible with a couple of power companies.
