50W Linkable LED Display Arm Light
This 50W fixed-CCT fixture lists 5500lm and a 60° beam. The published maximum is 6 compatible fixtures per run, subject to cable, connector, circuit and venue limits. Check clamp fit and the exact model's certification documents.
✓ Pros
- Highest lumen output in lineup
- ETL-listed model; verify current venue acceptance
- Daisy chain saves outlets
- Available in 4 plug types
- CRI90+ for accurate color
⚠ Considerations
- Higher price point
- Overkill for small 10×10 booths
- Heavier than 21W/25W models
This fixed-CCT 50W model produces 5500lm, approximately 69% more luminous flux than the fixed-CCT 25W model at 3250lm. Their beam angles differ: 60° and 120°, respectively. Choose for the display layout, and verify the exact model documentation and the venue’s current requirements.
Shop 50W Arm Light →25W LED Booth Display Arm Light
This fixed-CCT 25W model lists 3250lm and a 120° beam. Three aluminum mounting pieces are included; confirm the frame profile and fitting before ordering. Check the selected variant for plug and CCT.
✓ Pros
- Best value for 10×10 booths
- CRI90+ for product accuracy
- Lightweight and easy to mount
- Works for fabric and shelving
⚠ Considerations
- Linkable up to 10 compatible lights; check circuit and connector limits
- May need 3–4 units for 10×20
At 3250lm with a 120° beam, this 25W model is a starting point for front-lit graphics. Determine quantity from graphic width, mounting height, beam overlap and ambient hall lighting. Test placement before committing to a 10×10 or 10×20 booth package.
Shop 25W Arm Light →21W Linkable LED Arm Light
Link up to 10 compatible lights per run, subject to circuit and venue limits. Compact and versatile for exhibitors who need multiple lights with fewer power drops.
✓ Pros
- Chain up to 10 from 1 outlet
- Three mounting fittings included
- Lower unit price than the 25W, 35W and 50W models
- Ideal for shelving & product display
⚠ Considerations
- Lower output than 25W/50W
- Not ideal as sole light for fabric backwall
A practical choice when you need 4–10 lights and have only 1–2 floor outlets. At $74.99 per unit, ten 21W lights cost more than two 50W lights, but can distribute light across more shelving and product zones. Confirm the safe number of linked fixtures for your circuit and venue.
Shop 21W Linkable →35W LED Exhibition Arm Light
3500lm, ultra-bright, and built for medium-to-large booths where the 25W isn’t quite enough but the 50W is more than needed.
✓ Pros
- Higher output than 25W
- CRI90+ color accuracy
- Good for showroom-style displays
⚠ Considerations
- Linkable up to 6; check connector and circuit limits
- Slightly higher price than 25W
3500lm is approximately 8% above 3250lm. The 35W model also offers clamp, bolt-fix and T-slot mounting. Compare frame fit and mounting distance; the wattage alone does not establish how many lights a 10×20 booth needs.
Shop 35W Arm Light →11W LED Booth Arm Light
Compact, low-power, linkable up to 8 compatible lights per specified run, and CRI90+. Ideal for accent lighting, luxury brand presentations, or international shows where power draw is restricted.
✓ Pros
- Lowest power draw
- Wide-input-voltage model; select the correct regional plug
- Subtle, premium look
- Lightest in lineup
⚠ Considerations
- Not suitable as primary light for large booths
- Lower lumen output
This 11W fixture lists AC85–265V input, fixed CCT options and IEC C7/C8 Figure-8 linking. The maximum of 8 compatible fixtures per run remains subject to cable, connector, circuit and venue limits. Confirm the country plug and mounting fit on the product page.
