Are there other backyard flood lights like this?

just search amazon for LED flood light. There's dozens of them in varying sizes. The one you linked is actually only equivalent to a 65W halogen, so not very bright.

I've had this one for over 6 years. Used it as an outdoor light for volleyball games during the summer, but mostly use it for a portable work light.

Yeah I just came across some of those... I'm actually kind of dogging these:

I kind of want something that resemble stadium lights, are LED and that I can position at either position at the back of my yard to light up the entire space... was considering pulling the trigger on something like this but wanted to consult here first:

I'd pass on this one. The frosted lens isn't what you really want from a flood light. Plus, there's no information on beam angle. I suspect that's because the lens diffuses the light into a very broad beam....too broad, probably. Also, it's really expensive....you can get professional grade stuff for that price.
Good luck,

I've put up a couple of Cree's C-Lite floods. Haven't been in long enough to know much yet but for the price it is a nice fixture.

I went with the C-FL-A-RTS1-8L-40K-DB, 8000 lumen narrow flood in 4000*K, it was $150 many other sizes available. That is my only experience. I have tough time finding middle of the road stuff like this, either high end with price to match or cheap junk. This seems to fit the bill.

What's the intent for the lights. Are they for security, for playing sports at night, for when you have backyard parties? Different scenarios will require different fixtures.
