Frequently Asked Questions
What type of lighting is best for a trade show booth?
LED arm lights are the most versatile choice for most booths. They clamp onto standard frame pipes, offer adjustable beam direction, and provide CRI 90+ light that makes products look their best. For product highlights or signage, add a spotlight. For banner stands, use a clip-on light. Most 10×10 exhibitors start with 2–4 arm lights.
How many lights do I need for a 10×10 trade show booth?
2–4 LED arm lights are standard for a 10×10 inline booth. Two lights at the front corners provide general coverage. Add a third or fourth light if you have a product display table or backlit graphic that needs extra illumination. Use our 10×10 Booth Lighting Setup Guide for layout examples.
Are LED trade show lights allowed at convention centers?
Rules vary by show, venue and electrical contractor. Many US events request listed electrical equipment, but acceptance is model-specific. Check the product documentation and confirm current wattage, mounting and certification requirements with the organizer.
How do I attach lights to a trade show booth frame?
Clamp-mount models attach to compatible booth-frame profiles without drilling. Compare the clamp opening and frame dimensions, then follow the product instructions; installation time and compatibility vary by fixture and booth system.
Can I daisy-chain trade show lights to save on power drops?
Selected linkable LED booth lights can share power using their specified connector system. Check connector compatibility, maximum linked quantity and total circuit load, then compare that load with the electrical service ordered for the booth. See our Linkable Booth Lights guide.
What wattage do I need for trade show lighting?
For 10×10 and 10×20 booths, 16W–25W arm lights are a common starting range; larger walls, longer mounting distances or strong ambient light may call for higher-output fixtures. Use the calculator as an estimate and confirm the total load against the electrical service ordered for the booth.
Do you ship internationally?
International availability, shipping charges and included duties depend on the destination and are shown at checkout. Confirm the selected model's input voltage, plug and certification documentation for the intended event.
