LED Point Light (Pixel Light)

13 Oct, 2026

Note: All the following questions and answers are based on the actual product specifications and no parameters not provided have been fabricated. The specific figures (voltage, power, protection level, beam angle, point spacing, brightness, weight, size, lifespan, etc.) cited in each answer are all derived from the specification table.

01.For building facade lighting, should I choose point lights or mesh screens?

If the goal is only to outline commercial buildings, banks, residential buildings, or municipal buildings, or to create dot-matrix patterns, LED point lights (pixel lights) are the more suitable choice. A single point light has a power of only 1–2W, is fully encapsulated with IP67 waterproof protection, uses a PC housing, and offers beam angles of 120°/160°. They can be arranged one by one along a building facade to form a dot-matrix media facade. Mesh screens, by contrast, are more suitable for full-surface curtain wall video playback. Point lights can also create multi-building synchronized media facades, making them ideal for outlining "point-line-plane" scenes such as city streets, bridges, commercial complexes, and star-rated hotels.

02.Can IP67 pixel lights be used outdoors in the rain?

Yes. The entire point light series uses a fully encapsulated waterproof process with an IP67 protection rating and a PC housing, so they can be used directly in outdoor rain-exposed environments. They also offer IK10 impact resistance and salt spray corrosion resistance, making them suitable for long-term wind, sun, and rain exposure on seaside bridges, street-facing commercial buildings, and similar applications. Operating temperature range is -20°C to +60°C.

03.What voltage do point lights generally use? How are they wired for construction sites and buildings?

Point lights support DC12V or DC24V low-voltage power supply, which is safety extra-low voltage and easy to wire and power for building facade lighting and bridge projects. With a DMX512 control system, single-point independent addressing and dynamic changes can be achieved. Some basic models also support single-color dimming for lower cost.

04. Is the brightness of a single point light enough for building outlines?

A single LED bead has a brightness of 35–63LM and a wide beam angle of 120°/160°, providing even light distribution on building surfaces. For outlining, dot-matrix, and media facade projects, 35–63LM per point combined with dense arrangement is fully sufficient. If RGB/RGBW or adjustable white (1800–6500K) models are used, full-color flowing effects, gradients, and image/video mapping can also be achieved.

05.For a hotel exterior wall with colorful dynamic effects, can point lights achieve this?

Yes. Some point light models support RGB, RGBW, and adjustable white 1800–6500K. Through DMX512 control, dynamic effects such as flowing, chasing, breathing, and graphic/video playback can be achieved. Lifespan is >30,000 hours, suitable for long-term lighting of star-rated hotels. The operating temperature range of -20°C to +60°C also covers winter-summer temperature differences in most regions.

06.How durable are point lights? How many years can they be used in seaside bridge projects?

Point lights have a lifespan of >30,000 hours and have passed salt spray corrosion resistance testing and IK10 impact resistance, making them specifically suitable for harsh environments such as bridges and coastal landmarks. With fully encapsulated IP67 waterproofing and a PC housing, they can be used for many years under normal lighting hours, with basically maintenance-free operation.

07.How many point light models are available? How do I choose a model?

The full series has about 29 models, such as XH-H5010, XH-K3003, XH-G2302, and the Long-Distance model XH-K4006. The main factors when choosing a model are: whether the power supply is DC12V or DC24V, whether single-color or RGB/adjustable white is required, installation distance (choose the Long-Distance series for long-distance projects), and whether the beam angle should be 120° or 160°.

08.For multi-building synchronized media facades, can point lights be controlled uniformly?

Yes. Point lights support DMX512 control. Point lights on multiple buildings (commercial complexes, municipal building groups) can be uniformly addressed to achieve multi-building synchronized media facade effects. With DC12V/DC24V low-voltage transmission and controllers, animations and video content can be synchronized across buildings.

09.Can point lights operate normally in low winter temperatures?

Yes. Point lights have an operating temperature range of -20°C to +60°C. Outdoor projects in northern winters and high-altitude areas can operate normally without difficulty starting or dimming due to low temperatures. With IP67 waterproofing and a PC housing, they can work stably in rain, snow, and low-temperature environments.

10.What is the difference between single-color dimming and DMX512 control? How should small projects choose?

Single-color dimming is suitable for small projects that only need constant lighting or overall brightness changes. It has lower cost and simpler wiring. DMX512 supports independent addressing for each light, enabling complex dynamic effects such as flowing, graphics, and video. It is suitable for projects requiring effects, such as commercial complexes, hotels, and landmarks. Both use DC12V/DC24V, so choose according to the desired effect.

11. Is point light installation troublesome? What about later maintenance?

Point lights have an independent single-unit structure. They can be fixed one by one along building outlines or dot-matrix positions, offering a high degree of modularity. The PC housing is lightweight, and each unit has low power of 1–2W and low heat generation. If one unit fails, it can be replaced individually without affecting the whole system. With IP67 and >30,000 hours lifespan, later maintenance is minimal.

12.Can point lights be installed on residential community buildings for ambient lighting?

Yes. Point lights use only DC12V/DC24V, which is safe low voltage, making them suitable for residential community building outlines, courtyards, and unit entrance ambient lighting. With IP67 waterproofing and IK10 impact resistance, they are not easily damaged by accidental impact in residential areas. Both single-color and RGB models are available. For limited budgets, choose single-color dimming; for standout effects, choose RGB + DMX512.
