Keystone Technologies Square LED Canopy vs. Round OpticSwap LED Canopies

Keystone’s XFit LED Canopy light series has been a hit and there are a few reasons why. They covered all the options and light levels you could need, along with different styles and sizes of their LED canopies. Combined with Keystone’s exemplary service, it has become a trusted outdoor lighting solution for garages, gas stations and more! That said with all the LED canopy options they have, it’s important to understand the breadth of their options before diving in.

Keystone’s first exploration into the category featured square LED canopy fixtures with a fixed lens. These came in a bronze or white housing. All featured color-selectability for choosing between 3000K, 4000K and 5000K. Power-selectability was a popular feature too as they had a 25W/20W/15W version along with a 40W/30W/20W and a 60W/50W/40W for replacing higher output canopy lights. IP65 rated and DLC Premium for garnering the highest rebates. Need a sensor? Add a Keystone Microwave sensor like the KTS-MW3-12V-PKO or go with the Bluetooth Mesh SmartLoop sensor KTSL-FC4-12V-PKO for added control.

Yet in the midst of this, Keystone was working on a new version. This new version would mimic their OpticSwap technology seen previously with their LED area lights, meaning the LED canopy would come with multiple lens options. The 160° option comes standard while a 110° lens ships with the fixture and is easily swapped in the field. The new fixture also features a sleek, round, low-profile design that makes it easy to install in a variety of fixture applications. The color and power-selectability are still there, and the fixtures have a higher efficacy/lumens-per-watt than ever. Rated for 100,000 hours with a 10 year manufacturer warranty, going with Keystone’s LED canopy lights means you have a decade of service and protection from one of the most reliable lighting manufacturer’s in the game.

Keystone also heard about the need for a high lumen LED canopy fixture and thus created the KT-CLED150PS-L3-8CSB-VDIM-W which is a 15″ fuel-pump LED canopy light fixture that swaps between 150W/125W/100W along with the CCT select feature. This reaches nearly 23,000 lumens and can replace even the most high output HID canopy lights that exist in the market.
