Question 1

What is pixel pitch and how do I choose the right one?

Accepted Answer

Pixel pitch is the distance in millimeters between each LED bulb on a panel. A smaller number (like P1.875) means bulbs are packed closer together, giving you a sharper image — but at a higher cost. The right pitch depends on how close your nearest viewer will stand. At 6 ft away, P1.875 looks sharp. At 15 ft, P2.5 is indistinguishable. At 30+ ft, P4.81 or higher is all you need.

Question 2

What's the difference between indoor and outdoor panels?

Accepted Answer

Indoor panels (IP30–IP43) are thinner, lighter, and designed for climate-controlled spaces. They run 600–1,500 nits. Outdoor panels (IP65) are sealed against rain, dust, and temperature extremes, weigh more, and push 5,000–8,000 nits. Installing an indoor panel outdoors voids its rating and will fail within months.

Question 3

How much does a complete LED video wall cost?

Accepted Answer

Cost depends on pixel pitch, total size, and environment. Use the configurator at colorflexled.com to enter your dimensions, pick a panel, and get an instant total with a full itemized breakdown including panels, mounting, processing, and cabling.

Question 4

How much heat does an LED wall produce?

Accepted Answer

A person gives off about 100 W. A 20-panel P1.875 wall running typical corporate content at 20% brightness produces about 600 W of heat — equivalent to 6 extra people. A bright white dashboard at 50% load jumps to 1,500 W — 15 people. Indoor installations need 6–12 inches of rear ventilation clearance.

Question 5

How long do LED panels last?

Accepted Answer

LED panels are rated for 100,000+ hours — over 11 years of continuous 24/7 use. Most installations run 8–16 hours per day, so panels typically last 17–34 years before end of life.

Question 6

How much power does an LED wall use?

Accepted Answer

Power draw depends on content. Corporate presentations with dark backgrounds run 10–20% of max. Retail video averages 20–35%. Bright dashboards push 40–60%. Most installations land in the 15–30% range. A 20-panel P2.5 wall at typical use draws 630–1,260 W.
