The PAR38 is the largest common reflector lamp at 4.75 inches across, and it is the one homes rely on for outdoor floodlights, eave lights, landscape bullet fixtures and cans in tall ceilings. LED PAR38 lamps put out serious light for their wattage, which makes them a practical choice for security lighting that runs every night.

Rated for Weather
Many PAR38 lamps are used in open outdoor holders where rain can reach the lamp. In those fixtures, choose a lamp rated for wet locations. In enclosed fixtures or covered eaves, a damp rated lamp is usually enough.
For fixtures that hold the lamp, see our flood and spot lighting range.
Security and Accent Uses
A flood beam across a driveway or side yard makes a home safer after dark. A narrower beam in a landscape bullet fixture can reach high into a mature tree canopy. Warmer color temperatures look better on a home’s facade, while cooler light is sometimes preferred for security.
LED PAR38 lamps typically draw 13 to 18 watts to replace a 90 to 120 watt halogen or incandescent flood, with 1,100 to 1,500 lumens of output. Match the beam angle to the area you are lighting, and confirm the lamp works with a photocell or motion sensor if the fixture uses one.
