Exhibition Booth Arm Light

An exhibition booth arm light is a directional LED fixture mounted on an adjustable arm, designed to clamp onto the frame or panel of a trade show booth. It provides focused, high-CRI illumination for product displays, signage, and exhibit panels — without requiring ceiling rigging or venue electrical infrastructure.

BOOTH LIGHTS manufactures ETL-certified exhibition booth arm lights used by exhibitors at McCormick Place, LVCC, Orange County Convention Center, and major European trade fairs including Messe Frankfurt, Messe München, and Fiera Milano.

What Is an Exhibition Booth Arm Light?

An exhibition booth arm light consists of three components: a clamp or mounting bracket, an adjustable arm (typically 30–60 cm), and an LED spotlight head. The arm allows the light to be positioned precisely over products or signage, while the clamp attaches to standard booth extrusions (typically 30mm–50mm profiles).

Key specifications to look for:

  • Wattage: 11W / 21W / 25W / 50W options depending on booth size
  • CRI: ≥90 for accurate product color rendering
  • Color Temperature: 3000K (warm) / 4000K (neutral) / 5000K (cool) or tunable
  • Certification: ETL (North America), CE (Europe), RCM (Australia)
  • Connectivity: Daisy-chain / linkable for multi-light setups

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What size arm light do I need for a 10×10 booth?
A: Most 10×10 booths use 2–4 arm lights at 21W–25W each. For high-brightness requirements (jewelry, automotive), consider 50W models.

Q: Can exhibition booth arm lights be daisy-chained?
A: Yes. BOOTH LIGHTS linkable arm lights support daisy-chain connections, allowing multiple fixtures to run from a single power outlet — ideal for inline booths with limited power drops.

Q: Are exhibition booth arm lights ETL certified?
A: All BOOTH LIGHTS arm lights carry ETL certification, required at most major US trade shows including McCormick Place and LVCC.

Q: What arm length is standard for exhibition booths?
A: Most booth panels are 8–10 ft tall. An arm length of 30–45 cm positions the light optimally over display panels or product shelves.

Q: Do exhibition booth arm lights work with European power (220V)?
A: Yes. BOOTH LIGHTS arm lights support 100–240V universal input, compatible with US, European, and international power standards.

Q: What is the difference between an arm light and a clamp light?
A: An arm light has an extended arm for reach and angle adjustment. A clamp light refers to the mounting method. Exhibition booth arm lights combine both — a clamp mount with an adjustable arm.
