1. How Bright Should Outdoor Wall Lights Be?
Outdoor wall lighting lumen means the visible light emitted by a fixture (measured in lumens). It depends on the intended purpose of the light source.
● For pathway lighting, lights with 100 to 200 lumens are good for walkways or garden paths. They offer just enough brightness without going overboard to make a cozy ambiance.
● For security lighting of entranceways, driveway, or backyards, it is recommended to use 700 to 1300 lumens. That will give it much good brightness and discourage the intruders. Also, it will be safer.
● For decorative or ambient lighting on the patio, deck, or lounging area, use one with 300 to 700 lumens. It adds a good ambiance to your outdoor setting.
