RLLD Commercial Lighting recommends using specification grade, metal halide fixtures for horse track lighting and rodeo arena lighting whenever possible. This is because MH lighting fixtures fall into the category of high intensity discharge lights, also known as HID, and produce an exceptionally bright, white light with excellent color rendering. Contractors who use specification grade MH fixtures can expect to have a powerful competitive advantage over other consultants who may not have access to our vendor contracts and are forced by limited resources to fall back on retail grade flood lights and second-rate MH fixtures that do not feature the level of sophistication and long life our products are known for.

Electricians contracted by an equestrian center can often create both a superior aesthetic and generate savings for their clients by using metal pole mount adapters and MH box floods to install new fixtures to existing lighting poles around the arena. Normally this does not require rewiring the existing system, so labor rates are lower and insurance liability is also reduced due to a lower risk of damage to electrical components. Equestrian facility managers may remember how previous contractors were able to install lights that were inexpensive and easy to mount and may not want to invest a large deal of money even if it is in a much needed upgrade. By using our mounting accessories and complimentary design consultation services, contractors can offer a competitive price and still light a rodeo arena or horse track with fixtures that feature the latest designs in internal reflectors that force the light toward the arena without creating glare or spill light in the process Benefits of this level of technology become even more readily apparent in an urban setting where dark sky laws strictly prohibit light pollution in neighboring business and residential areas.

Heavy duty mounting brackets make it easy to install fixtures on 6″ to 12″ wooden poles, allowing fixtures to subsequently pivot for directional aiming. We have a number of recommended wattage intensities designed for lighting poles of different heights, itemized as follows:

250 watt light fixtures are designed for a 20 foot or less mounting height

400 watt fixtures are designed for a 20′ to 30′ foot mounting height

1000 watt fixtures are designed for a 30′ or more mounting height

Wooden poles are not always the best poles to use for lighting equestrian facilities or commercial rodeo arenas that are aiming for a more refined and architectural image. In such instances, it is often advisable to substitute steel and fiberglass poles which are more durable and generally better suited to larger horse arenas and tracks.

Such larger equestrian facilities may even want a completely brand new horse track lighting or rodeo arena lighting system. Such facilities may have one or more employees on staff that carries an electrical technician certification, or they may be affiliated through networking channels with a professional lighting design firm. Metal halide fixtures ranging up to 1000W (with standard multi-tap ballast) can be obtained through our network of top-grade manufacturer relationships. Commercial grade steel poles and more decorative and robust wooden pole ranging in heights from 20′ to 40′ can also be ordered through out distribution channels, allowing for eclectic and custom equestrian horse track lighting systems to be designed from the ground up.

In order to fully anticipate the lighting needs of both smaller rodeo arenas and larger equestrian centers, we have created a number of horse arena lighting packages for the convenience of both the professional design firm and the licensed, DIY electrical expert. Commercial grade lighting kits can be purchased in either direct burial or flange mounts for concrete footings. These kits include a number of specific options that are both standard and customizable for a multitude of horse and rodeo arena lighting design requirements.

To provide this wide range of application and diversity of configurations, it is necessary to tightly regulate electron flow within the lamps to maximize lamp life and to generate a higher quality of evenly distributed light. This is why all of our equestrian center, horse track, and rodeo lighting fixtures feature multi-tap ballasts ranging from 120V up to 277V.

For this level of sophisticated wiring and lighting design, it is sometimes necessary for experts to confer with other experts, which is why we provide complimentary technical support and lighting design services to clients and serious inquirers.

How To Administer Cpr

Whenever an emergency situation hits, or even when the power just happens to go out for whatever reason, it’s always a good idea to have some emergency lighting around the home. Remember when Y2K was about to hit and everyone was scrambling around for back-up generators to give them the extra jolt of power needed in case the end of the world did happen? Well, the end of the world didn’t happen, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a good idea to have a generator lying around the house. With that said, ask yourself, are you and your family ready for the next Y2K?

It’s always good to have some extra candles and flashlights around your home, but sometimes those items won’t always suffice. A few other items you should also have on hand include water, batteries, and even some dry foodstuff; after all you never know how long you’ll be in the dark for. Other items that I’ve found to be extremely helpful include hurricane lanterns and solar powered lights such as flood lights and lanterns.

Hurricane lanterns, whether they’re the traditional ones made for oil candles or the modern ones that include flash bulb ballasts are excellent sources of light. Perfect for camping and emergency situations, hurricane lanterns provide a sufficient amount of light for long periods of time, which is surprising since it’s considered a small lamp. Solar powered lights and flood lights also make for excellent emergency lights. Mainly used for industrial type projects, they can also be used for outdoor events and as construction lights since they’re extremely bright.

You wouldn’t really think it, but solar powered lights do come in handy and require little maintenance. Batteries are usually not required (even though it’s a good idea to have some around in the event that you do need them) and you only need to put them out in the sunlight to get them charged. Even today, many companies are developing solar powered and eco-friendly lights and flashlights, ensuring you that they will work the moment you need them. Regardless, no matter what the circumstances are, there’s no such thing as being too prepared. As long as you have all the necessities, you’ll be more than ready to face the situation head on.

Solar Lighting can be used in many ways

Here are just a few examples of practical applications for outdoor solar lighting:

Solar Accent Lights

For specialist use in the yard or garden these are designed for accent lighting along the edges of driveways, walkways, paths and entrances to homes, garages and other buildings. They can also be used to enhance any other features which you want to illuminate within your garden.

Solar Motion Sensor Lights

Perfect for lighting those areas that you only want illuminated when you or an intruder approaches. They enhance the safety and security of your home for you and all of your family. Because solar lights are easy to install they can be located in those places where traditional lights and the wiring required are a problem.

Solar Spot Lights

Use solar spots to light up any individual objects outside you home such as trees, bushes, a flower bed, statues or even a pond or stream. They can be mounted low or high to give different effects. They are easy to install as they require no external wiring and can be simply attached to a stake, normally supplied with them, which can be pushed in to the dirt wherever you like.

Solar Flood Lights

If you want to light a much larger area then solar flood lights will help you to do this. Again they can be mounted low for a very dramatic effect or even used to light up a large area of a wall or side of a building to give a silhouette effect to any trees or bushes etc which are located in front of them.

Solar Sign Lights

No need to get electricity down to the end of your driveway anymore if you want to illuminate the number of your house at night. Just use a solar powered sign light to get a great effect and allow everyone who is visiting you to find you really easily.

Solar Pond and Pool Lights

Today you can now get small solar powered lights in a wide rage of different colors that will float permanently in your pool or pond to giving a dramatic and potentially moving light show all night long. If you haven’t seen these then you really should as the effect they give is very impressive.

Flex Track Lighting

Kimberly Quang asked:


A darkened street front is just an invitation to criminals to break into your business at night. Security is just one of the many reasons that business owners such as you decide to install commercial street lights. You might also like the freedom to decide upon the style for yourself, rather than the cold, Spartan look offered by local governments. The aesthetic reasons are another common purpose for installing your own commercial street lights. The practical appeal of commercial flood lighting a business sign might also lead you toward street lamps.

Your business is an important investment, and you will need to keep it safe from criminals. One of the easiest ways to do this is to have your workplace well lit with outdoor security lighting during overnight hours. This will not only keep your property secure, but it will make your employees feel safer as they come and go during darkened hours. As your workers walk to their cars along the road, they should have their paths lit by commercial street lights. This will keep them from tripping, and it will discourage assaults and robberies. Even if you have several security cameras on your property, you need to keep in mind that they will work best when they are directed toward a well-lit area. If your business is burglarized, you will be able to more clearly see the criminal from the camera footage if there is light coming from your street lamps.

There are many decorative options for commercial street lights, and in most cases you can have your poles custom designed. This allows you to create a look for your street lights that closely matches the architecture of your business. If your city has modernly styled street lamps, but your business is old fashioned, you could decide to use more traditional light poles. You can find electric lights that resemble copper gas lanterns, or might even be real, working gas lanterns. Stylistically, commercial street lights can be found to accommodate any tastes.

You might also need commercial street lights or landscape flood lights in order to illuminate a sign to direct customers to your business. If they cannot see your company from the street, they will be more likely to bypass it, and go elsewhere. This can cost you in lost revenue, something no business owner wants to happen. Another way that your lights can save you money is through savings on your energy bill. If you choose the right sort of energy efficient light bulbs, you can save hundreds of dollars a year, depending upon the number of lights you have. You will need to know that energy efficient light bulbs do not operate well in sub-zero temperatures. If you work in a cold climate, you will need to purchase special sub-zero ballast for your street lights to ensure that they will light on even the harshest of winter days.

If you want to install commercial street lights or accessories, check with your local government to see if there are permits you need or paperwork to be filed. There likely will be. Ask a local contractor in the area who installs street lights the procedure he follows. You might have to submit a drawing and project specifications before you begin, but once you start, if you are unsure of how to proceed, consult an expert in lighting. He can help to give you the guidance you need to install your commercial street lights.

Camille Howe asked:


Industrial companies can eliminate the costs of contracted design and installation services by building their own commercial lighting systems. This is not as difficult as it may appear. Each commercial lighting system consists of two main categories: interior lights and exterior lights. Each of these categories divides once again into two categories of purpose: functional lighting and decorative lighting. Understanding these two facts alone simplifies the process of selecting components, as few industrial clients need much, if any, decorative lighting. Because commercial lighting systems serve primarily a practical purpose, operations managers can itemize the major activities that occur in and around their facilities and literally match lighting to worker activity through simple, efficient, online inventory and order processing.

The first priority of most industrial clients is heightened security. Commercial lighting systems offer a number of clear and tangible enhancements to any company’s protection of its buildings and employees. The most obvious benefit a better commercial lighting system brings is improved visibility through elimination of all shadows in parking lots and between buildings. Crime simply cannot occur as easily if there are no dark places for intruders to hide. With commercial lighting systems, a company can customize flood lighting by installing half of their floodlights on timers that turn lights on at sundown and off at sunrise. They can save costs by installing the remainder of their floodlights with motion sensors, providing additional lighting only when the system detects and intruder and gives a sudden, bright surprise to unauthorized personnel. Security cameras and guards can see more clearly around the edges of buildings fitted with wall packs and other external lights. Most companies have a wide variety of fixtures custom-engineered to fit on the sides and roofs of many different building types. Adding wall packs to one’s commercial lighting system is a very cost effective way to create a field of light around the entire building and make any attempt at intrusion immediately visible to cameras and guards. Adding glare free parking lot lights to increase visibility between vehicles, and sign lighting at the front entrance adds further security by eliminating any dark areas unauthorized personnel can use to gain access to the property.

Selecting interior lights for commercial systems is simple and cost effective when a few basic factors are considered with each purchase. First, what room or industrial facility will the fixture illuminate? How many workers will be in this room, and what will they be doing while there? How important is high color rendering to safe and efficient work? Will the lights be on continuously, or only on when workers enter for a few minutes at a time? In very general terms, large machine rooms and storage areas don?t require high color rendering and tend to need continuous light. Commercial systems normally feature long-burning fluorescents in these areas that require fewer bulb replacements and reduce power consumption. In offices, halogen lights offer a clearer rendering of color and glare free lighting for people working at computers, copy machines, and desks. Interior commercial light systems can be built per room, per specific task, in this fashion. One or two metal halide lights in a manager?s office is all one needs for a Spartan touch of decorative color. Fluorescents that give task light only when needed cut costs in bathrooms and kitchens, and the heat recycling ability of halogen lights gives ideal illumination for meeting rooms without spiking the power bill with unnecessary brightness and high temperature.
