The image
A billboard can be set up without fire hazard, too. However, the LED technology brings further advantages. The picture quality is impressively good. If an LED wall shows black pixels, the diodes do not shine dark, they simply do not shine at all. This results in deep black, remarkable contrast and especially energy saving. However, contrast is not solely created by dark image elements. LEDs create impressively bright light. Considering the outdoor use of LED cabinets, one thing is important: the brightness of the LEDs is not indicated in watt, but “nits”. With LED wall it is the same as with a computer monitor at home: the more sunlight, the more the brightness needs to be increased. This means that LED walls that are used outdoors need to have a higher nits number than the indoor version. While the LEDBRIX cabinets have 5,500 nits and the P4+WH cabinets have 4,500 nits, the indoor version needs less, usually around 1,000 to 1,100.
The resolution
Regarding the resolution the following aspect needs to be considered: the outdoor and indoor cabinets differ by spacing in between the individual diodes. In practice this means gradations concerning the ideal viewing distance. If the spacing is smaller, the pictures also seems more connected when viewed up close. If the spacing is bigger, it is more comfortable to watch from afar. While it may sound like the first option is always better, it is important to note that the viewer only profits from a higher number of diodes if he is in the immediate environment of the LED wall. If the wall is positioned further away from the audience, a less closely spaced wall might be enough. This decision has financial implications, as a high number of diodes raises the price.
Last but not least: size
To be honest, the measurements are not to be disregarded. We want to go back to the moment before the decision on LED technology. Especially here, alternatives like LCD walls remain behind LED technology. LED walls might consist of individual cabinets; however, they seem to be of one piece only. This means that there are no upper limits regarding the size of the LED installation. It is not surprising that with increasing number of square metres the price goes up, but it is important to be mentioned. Not only the complete wall, but also the cabinets are available in different sizes. The P4+WH, as well as the P4+WH PRO and the indoor series P3+BL are available for you as smaller options with a width and height of 500 mm. The bigger option has a height of 1000 mm and a width of 500 mm. Two sizes that offer an endless number of possibilities. The P2+sBL cabinets measure 500 × 500 mm, the cabinets of the LEDBRIX series are 640 mm in width and 320 mm in height.
LEDTEK
The most spectacular areas of application of LED walls are probably live shows and big events. However, an LED wall even makes the most boring advertisement an eye-catcher. Therefore, LEDTEK tries to exploit all opportunities of LED technology, because an LED wall technically cannot be boring. It asks for motivation and inventive spirit. It provides cinematic atmosphere anywhere you need it. We would be happy to help you in the process of finding the fitting LED wall for you.
