Corn lamps and bulb lamps are the two most widely used lighting sources in the lighting market. They are all screw configurations, and can also be directly used in home or office lighting, especially for replacing old incandescent lamps and energy-saving lamps. So, which is better, corn lamp or bulb lamp?

First of all, it should be explained that the corn lamps and bulb lamps we often say refer to the light sources using LED lamp beads, and they must be classified as LED lamps. Therefore, both have the common characteristics of LED lamps.

What are corn lights and bulb lights?

Corn light is a kind of led lamp, because the maximum light-emitting angle of led is 120 degrees. Considering the uniformity of light, it is specially designed to emit light in 360 degrees.

The bulbs mentioned here also use LED light sources, with a professional heat dissipation structure, and the working temperature is very low (40-60 ℃). The power only needs 0.8W-12W to replace 15W-100W incandescent bulbs and 5W-50W energy-saving lamps.

Which is better, corn lamp or bulb lamp?

Corn lamps and bulb lamps have different luminous characteristics, especially the shape difference is huge. As for which one is better, the key depends on whether it is applicable. When we choose, we can understand the different characteristics of their luminescence.

1. The lighting angle is different. In comparison, the light-emitting angle of the bulb light is smaller, and the light-emitting angle of the corn light is larger, reaching 360-degree light.

2. Whether there is a lampshade. Bulb lamps generally have a lampshade, and corn lamps have both cases with and without lampshade.

3. Shape. The led corn light is named because it looks like a corn on the cob. Bulbs are long like incandescent light bulbs.

4. Can you see the lamp beads? The led corn lamp can see the lamp beads one by one, while the bulb lamp has a lampshade, and most of the lamp beads cannot be seen.

For household lighting, you can choose corn lamps or bulb lamps. There is little difference between the two. The key is to properly choose the relationship between power and area, because LED lamps are much more energy-efficient than traditional incandescent lamps and energy-saving lamps.

The corn lamp is shown in the picture: 360 degrees of light, its shape is like a corn cobs.

Simply put, led corn lights can be used anywhere you want.

Led corn light can be used as the internal light source of garden lights, landscape lights, street lights and other lamps, and can also be used for direct lighting in schools, factories, offices, homes, restaurants, hotels, supermarkets, gymnasiums and other occasions. In addition, led corn lamps can also directly replace incandescent lamps, energy-saving lamps, electrodeless lamps, mercury lamps, sodium lamps and other types of lamps, and there is no need to replace the original lamp holder, just choose a suitable lamp head and screw it on, which is very simple and convenient.
