What are Wall Pack & Shoebox LED Bulbs?
Wall pack and shoebox LED bulbs are specialized wall pack replacement bulbs designed with directional optics to upgrade outdoor site lighting. These wall pack shoebox retrofit bulbs allow for a direct conversion of traditional high-intensity discharge (HID) fixtures into high-efficiency LED systems. By choosing a shoebox LED retrofit or wall pack solution, facility managers can target light precisely where it's needed for improved safety and reduced light pollution. Each rotatable base LED bulb is engineered to ensure high-lumen output is directed accurately toward the ground or building perimeters.
HID to LED Wattage Comparison: Directional Efficiency
Transitioning to LED in directional fixtures provides immediate energy reduction, often consuming up to 70% to 79% less energy than equivalent legacy systems. The following comparison illustrates typical savings for common wall pack replacement bulbs:
| Traditional Source | Traditional System Wattage | LED System Wattage | Energy Savings |
| 175W Metal Halide | 210W | 60W | 71% |
| 250W Metal Halide | 300W | 75W | 75% |
| 320W Metal Halide | 370W | 140W | 62% |
| 400W Metal Halide | 480W | 120W | 75% |
| 1000W Metal Halide | 1200W | 450W | 63% |
Advanced Features for Wall Pack & Shoebox Retrofits
- Field Selectable CCT and Wattage: Integrated switches allow users to choose from three color temperatures (3000K, 4000K, 5000K) and multiple power levels on a single lamp.
- Precision Targeting with Rotatable Bases: Many models feature a rotatable base LED bulb design (up to 320°) to ensure directional light is perfectly aligned with the fixture's internal optics.
- Plug-and-Play Smart Controls: Integrated Smart Sensor Ports support microwave motion sensors, photocells, and WiFi modules for automated energy management.
- Compact, Fan-less Heat Dissipation: Performance Class designs utilize advanced integrated heat sinks that reduce lamp size by up to 30%, ensuring they fit into tight, enclosed housings.
- Instant, Stable Illumination: Unlike legacy HID systems, these LED retrofits provide instant-on functionality with no warm-up period and stable color output.
