Yes, 1 outlet per 2 lights. Then 1 switch per row of lights. It lights the garage great! Even with all the lights on I am still only burning 960 watts. I bought a 90 watt/7200 lumen wall pack for the outside that I am trying to figure out how to mount and then I'll be done with the lighting...

I used chain going from beam to beam and then a single piece of chain down. It worked out well for me so I could center the lights and hang them at the height I wanted without lots of hardware. I also got some long skinny bolts and nuts to secure each set of lights together. I was able to...

After several months of delays I finally got my lights up and power ran. I am still working on cleaning up the wiring but I wanted to show you what 24 lights from Sams club look like in a 40x40x16 building. These were taken at 11PM at night. [/url]2016-05-20 22.25.08 (Large) by Andy Dodge, on...

I just bought 28 of them form my 40x40x16 tonight. I hung two of them just to see how they might look and I am really excited to get them all installed! There was plenty of light with just two in a 20x20 section to do all the basic stuff I would need to do. I can't wait to finish my install!

This is pretty much what I was thinking of doing in my 40x40x16 with a 4/12 roof. I was going to do 8 lights x 3 rows. I have 3 roll up doors so I was going to put each row on a switch so I could choose to have only a single row on or all 3 if needed. How many have you put up total and are you...

True, but all questions are a little different. Some may be looking to make a showroom finish on their floor with an unlimited budget. Some like myself simply want to protect our floor with a good product for as little as possible. I have been reading as many posts as I can and wanted an...

I am in the process of finishing a 40x40 steel garage and would like to see what my options are for sealing/protecting the floor. Simplicity is also a desired factor. I am also mainly interested in oil and fluid protection as I will be parking my old diesel truck in there and working on dirt...

I have used these for over a year now and love them. http://www.supercircuits.com/alibi-megapixel-day-night-ir-ip-outdoor-security-camera-ali-ns3014r Very simple and they are plug and play. remote monitoring works well via cell or web browser. Paired with one of these its as simple as running a...

Thanks Chris, That was exactly what I was looking for. I came up with 67.5 lumens per sq ft so I was worried that it wouldn't be enough. (4500*24/1600) I saw several people that said they recommended around 80. I will have the vinyl backed insulation that is white on both the walls and ceiling...

Is anyone else using these lights? Any updates on how they are working?

I am having a 40x40 garage built with 16 foot sidewalls. The peak is 20ft tall in the center. I was going to go with a basic T8 in 8ft lengths, but for the price I can get 24 of these. I am thinking of installing them in pairs similar to how a 8ft T8 would look and doing 3 rows of 8 lights...
