When it comes to illuminating large industrial and commercial spaces, UFO high bay lights are one of the best lighting solutions. Whether you're lighting up warehouses, factories, gymnasiums, or retail stores, selecting the right UFO high bay light ensures optimal brightness, energy efficiency, and long-term cost savings. In this guide, LFD Lighting will help you choose the best UFO high bay light for your space.
What Are UFO High Bay Lights?
UFO high bay lights are circular, compact LED fixtures designed to provide powerful illumination in spaces with high ceilings, typically above 15 feet. Their unique dome-shaped design enhances light distribution while ensuring durability and efficiency. Compared to traditional metal halide (MH) or fluorescent high bays, LED UFO high bay lights offer higher lumens per watt, lower energy consumption, and a longer lifespan.
Key Factors to Consider When Choosing a UFO High Bay Light
1. Wattage & Lumen Output
The wattage and lumens determine the brightness of the light. For example:
- 100W LED UFO High Bay – Suitable for small to medium spaces (e.g., workshops, small warehouses).
- 200W LED UFO High Bay – Ideal for large warehouses, gymnasiums, and factories.
- 300W LED UFO High Bay – Best for high-ceiling areas requiring powerful illumination.

2. Mounting Height & Beam Angle
- 15-20 ft. ceilings – Use 100W to 150W with a 120° beam angle.
- 20-30 ft. ceilings – Opt for 150W to 200W with a 90° beam angle.
- 30+ ft. ceilings – Choose 250W to 300W with a 60° beam angle for focused lighting.
3. Color Temperature (CCT)
UFO high bay lights come in different Correlated Color Temperatures (CCT):
- 4000K (Neutral White) – Provides balanced, natural lighting for offices and retail spaces.
- 5000K (Daylight White) – Ideal for warehouses and manufacturing plants, enhancing productivity.
- 6000K+ (Cool White) – Best for high-precision work environments needing maximum brightness.
4. Dimmability & Smart Controls
Many LFD Lighting UFO high bay lights come with 0-10V dimming options, allowing you to adjust brightness based on your needs. Some models also support motion sensors and smart lighting controls to further improve energy efficiency.
5. Durability & IP Rating
For industrial and outdoor applications, choosing a durable IP65 or IP66-rated UFO high bay light ensures protection against dust, moisture, and water. Our LFD Lighting LED UFO High Bay Lights are built with heavy-duty aluminum housing and heat dissipation technology to extend lifespan.
