What is the difference between BR30 and BR40 LED light bulbs?

The terms BR30 and BR40 refer to specific types of light bulbs, specifically bulged reflector bulbs, with different sizes and applications. When choosing between BR30 and BR40 bulbs, consider the size of the fixture and the lighting requirements for the space. BR40 bulbs are larger and typically provide more light output, making them suitable for larger spaces or areas where more brightness is needed. BR30 bulbs are more commonly used in smaller fixtures or areas where a softer, more focused light is sufficient.

• BR30 light bulbs usually have a diameter of around 3.75 inches. They are typically used for flood lights, recessed can lights, and track lighting. The "30" after "BR" represents the diameter in 1/8" increments.
• BR40 light bulbs usually have a diameter of around 5 inches making them larger than BR30 bulbs They are also used for flood lights, recessed can lights, and track lighting. The "40" after "BR" represents the diameter in 1/8" increments.

Can I replace a BR30 with a BR40?

Yes, BR40s can be used to replace BR30s. There are some considerations to keep in mind though.

• Size & Fixture Compatibility - BR40 bulbs have a larger diameter compared to BR30 bulbs. Make sure that the BR40 will actually fit the fixture for both performance and aesthetics.
• Light Coverage - BR40 bulbs generally have a wider beam angle, providing broader light coverage compared to BR30 bulbs. If you are looking for a more narrow and focused light distribution, a BR30 bulb should be used.
• Brightness & Intensity - BR40 bulbs are often higher in wattage and lumens. The brightness and intensity will change with the installation of a new bulb type with new specs.

What is a BR40 bulb used for? What are some typical lights that take BR40 bulbs?

Is PAR38 the same as BR40? Is there a difference in the beam angle?

PAR38s and BR40s share some similarities with the biggest being they are types of flood lights. Their shapes, beam angles, applications, and light distribution differ.

• Shape & Beam Angle:

  • PAR38: The shape of PAR38s is narrower making it have a more focused and narrower beam angle for focused spotlighting or directional lighting.
  • BR40: BR40s are wider and shallower in shape. They provide a broader beam angle. and their bulged shape is designed for more even light distribution making them ideal for broader illumination where a wider beam angle is needed.
• Applications & Light Distribution:
  • PAR38: PAR38s are commonly used in outdoor fixtures for flood lighting, spot lighting, and accent lighting. The light distribution is more directional and focused on specific areas or objects.
  • BR40: The light distribution of BR40s is more spread out and even. Since the light distribution is more spread out that makes BR40s more suitable for larger areas that require general illumination over a wider area like a living room or areas with recessed lighting.
