There are two main types of panel lights on the market: back-lit panel lights and side-lit panel lights. What are the differences between back-lit and side-lit panel lights? Next, Guangpu Rui from Shenyang Runyang Yiping Lighting Appliance Co., Ltd., will guide you through the distinctions between these two types.

Backlit panel lights utilize the LED beam angle to design reasonable LED spacing, paired with diffuser panels and fixture height for optimal mixing effects. Emphasizing high brightness, the 595*595 model can reach 4000lm, making it a high-lumens product that replaces traditional grid light panels.

Thicker, typically exceeding 45mm in thickness. Even light output with uniform brightness reaching above 0.9. The process requirements are relatively simple. The side-emitting panel light utilizes light guide plate technology, designing the light guide plate dots based on the arrangement of LED lamp beads and their emission angles, achieving uniform brightness through the light guide plate. Lower brightness, with a 595*595 specification, generally within 3000lm; suitable for applications with lower ceiling heights.

Thinner, with a thickness of 15mm or less.

Poor surface uniformity, brightness uniformity reaches 0.85. If not handled properly, there will be noticeable bright edges around. High cleanliness requirements for the workshop, poor process control results in a low yield rate (mainly dust causing bright spots on the light guide plate).
