Why Professional Security Lighting Matters
The Science of Crime Deterrence
According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, well-lit properties experience 39% fewer break-ins than poorly lit areas. The IQ America LM1811 provides professional-grade 1100 lumen illumination that creates an effective deterrent while enhancing safety for residents and visitors.
Security experts from the American Society for Industrial Security recommend motion-activated lighting as the first line of defense in comprehensive security systems. The LM1811's advanced sensor technology and powerful LED output make it ideal for both residential and commercial applications.
Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings
Traditional halogen security lights consume 300-500 watts while providing inferior illumination. The Department of Energy reports that LED security lights like the LM1811 use 75% less energy while lasting 25 times longer than incandescent alternatives.
