A baseball travels at very high speeds inside a batting cage. Players need to see the ball clearly without distracting glare. Creating a uniform field of illumination within the perimeter of the cage is the most important objective in batting cage lighting. Photometric analysis software has consistently demonstrated that optimal light levels need to be around 50-foot candles.

Batting Cage Lighting Kits:
To achieve the best possible performance, we have configured a four pole kit. Depending on the size and location of the cage, and to some extent, surrounding light levels, mounting heights can vary between 17 feet and 20 feet. Poles are positioned high enough to circumvent ball strikes if the netting of the cage becomes loose over time.

It makes sense to use this configuration. When you consider that roadways are narrow spaces that require bright, glare free lighting concentrated only between the boundaries of the pavement itself, then you can quickly see the parallels to lighting the interior of a narrow cage that requires a high level of visibility for player safety and performance.
LEDSpot batting cage lighting kits ensure that players will be able to see the ball in transit under conditions very similar to those of an actual game. These kits also keep facilities in compliance with many dark sky laws. Fixture housings and pole heights minimize the risk of equipment damage, making the kit a low-maintenance investment that can operate for years without the need for repair or replacement.
