Outdoor mesh screen has been widely used in fields such as building curtain walls, outdoor advertising, and urban landscape lighting due to their advantages of lightweight, high transparency, and convenient installation. How to choose the right product for different models and specifications of led mesh screens? This article will conduct in-depth analysis from multiple aspects such as color, pixel ptich, brightness,voltage and presentation effect to help you choose the best solution.
Color selection: RGB or RGBW?
The color of LED grid screen directly affects the display effect, mainly including the following types:
(1) RGB
●Using red, green, and blue three in one LED beads, it can display rich colors.
●Suitable for advertising, stage backgrounds, glass curtain walls, etc.
●Capable of playing videos, animations, and dynamic advertisements.
(2) RGBW
●Adding white LED on the basis of RGB results in purer colors and higher brightness.
●Suitable for high-end outdoor display projects, such as commercial complex exterior walls, large building media facades, etc.
✅ Suggestion for selection:
If you need to display videos or dynamic images, RGB or RGBW grid screens are more suitable, with RGBW having brighter colors but higher costs.
Pixel ptich: How to choose the appropriate specification?
The pixel pitch of an LED mesh display determines the pixel density and display precision. The smaller the dot spacing, the higher the pixel density, and the clearer the display effect, but the cost is also higher.
(1) Applicable scenarios for different pixel pitch
| pixel pitch | application | viewing distance |
| P31.25 | suitable for close viewing, such as glass curtain walls, shopping mall windows | 31.25m |
| P40 | suitable for medium distance advertising display, such as commercial building exterior walls | 40m |
| P50 | suitable for large building facades and landscape lighting | 50m |
| P80 | suitable for large outdoor advertisements viewed | 80m |
| P100 | suitable for high transparency building curtain walls and urban landmark lighting | 100m |
| P125 | suitable for ultra large displays, such as sports stadiums and bridge lighting | 125m |
| P150 | suitable for ultra long distance lighting, such as large building advertisements | 150m |
✅ Suggestion for selection:
●If the project requires high-definition display, it is recommended to choose P31.25 P40.
●If it is a medium viewing distance, P50 and P80 can be considered .
●If viewing from a distance, you can choose P100 P125,P150, This type of product has higher light transmittance and is lighter in weight.
How to choose brightness you want?
| Normal brightness value | |||||||||
| Pixel Ptich | P31.25 | P40 | P50 | P55 | P62.5 | P80 | P100 | P125 | P150 |
| Pixel dots/Sqm | 1024 | 625 | 400 | 331 | 256 | 156 | 100 | 64 | 44 |
| Permeability | 43.8% | 60.3% | 70.6% | 74% | 78% | 83.8% | 87.6% | 90.5% | 92.3% |

| 4LEDS DC24V | 6554 | 4000 | 2560 | 2116 | 1638 | 1000 | 640 | 410 | 284 |
| 6LEDS DC24V | 9759 | 5956 | 3812 | 3150 | 2440 | 1489 | 953 | 610 | 424 |
| DC36V brightness | |||||||||
| 1 LED DC36V | 15200 | 9300 | 6000 | 4850 | 3800 | 2320 | 1490 | 950 | 660 |
✅ Suggestion for selection:
The choice of product brightness depends on whether you use it simultaneously during the day and night, or separately at night. If you use it simultaneously during the day and night, the brightness needs to reach 5000nit. If you only use it at night, 1500nit is sufficient. It depends on the actual needs of your project.

Voltage: DC24V or DC36V?
Flexible Mesh Screen mainly use 24V or 36V power supply, and different voltages are suitable for different application scenarios.
●24V low voltage power supply: safer and suitable for small area grid screens, such as P31.25 P40.
●36V high voltage power supply: low transmission loss, suitable for large-scale screens such as P100 P125,P150.
✅ Suggestion for selection:
If it is a small project, choosing 24V is safer; If it is a large-area grid screen, choosing 36V can reduce power line losses.
Display effect: How to ensure the best visual experience?
If you want to achieve high-quality display effects, you need to pay attention to the following parameters:
●High refresh rate (≥ 3840Hz): reduces screen flicker, suitable for shooting and live streaming applications.
●Wide viewing angle (≥ 120 °): Ensure clear viewing from multiple angles.
●High contrast (≥ 5000:1): Enhance the sense of layering in the image, making black darker and colors more vivid.
●High protection level (IP65 or above): Outdoor grid screens should have waterproof and dustproof capabilities to adapt to harsh weather conditions.
✅ Suggestion for selection:
If it is an outdoor advertising or curtain wall project, it is necessary to choose products with high brightness, high refresh rate, and wide viewing angle to ensure the best viewing experience.
Summarize
When choosing an LED grid screen, multiple factors such as application scenarios, viewing distance, power consumption, brightness, and voltage should be considered comprehensively:
✅ Up close viewing (30m-40m): P31.25, P40
✅ Medium distance viewing (50-80m): P50, P80
✅ Remote viewing (over 100m): P100,P125,P150
✅ Lights up at night: 1500nit, 24V low-voltage power supply
✅ Lights up during the day and night: 6000nit, 36V high voltage power supply
Choosing the appropriate LED grid screen not only ensures high-quality display effects, but also optimizes energy consumption, improves installation efficiency, and creates greater commercial value!
