Well here is an update - house is finished - we move in tomorrow! Garage turned out way better than expected. Can’t believe how much light I have in my garage for just under $400... couldn’t ask for anything more! Here is a quick pic I snapped with my phone. Once we get settled in I will post...

Thanks! Looks like lightup.com are out of stock until June 1st for the 5000k... I’ll likely just wait to order until then unless 4000k is the way to go?

Hoping to hear some feedback as well.

Don’t have time to search, but I had PS draw me up a plan using the max lite LSS2XT8USE4803. I have my pre lighting / electrical walkthrough this morning for the new house and was planning on ordering them after talking over things with the electrician and builder about them. I have all of the...

Thanks guys I am going to order the gyros and the ez lock set and give Er hell

Yeah I have a rotozip as well but the space I typically use it in for my job isn’t very big and it’s easiest to use the dremel. I guess I probably overexaggerated with how often they shatter - it’s not all the time by any means but does happen from time to time. Aside from other tool...

I searched and couldn’t come up with anything. Sick of the ‘reinforced’ cutoff wheels shattering on me and going dull in 5 mins. There are some metal ones but they seem to be pretty spendy for what you get. Is there a good alternative? Doesn’t have to be dremel brand, but must work with a...

Thanks again!! Can’t wait to post up the ‘after’ photos. Basement is being poured this week... have a solid 3.5 months wait unfortunately.

That was my initial thought - recessed box that is covered by the light. Or, like you said just put an outlet above the ceiling and cut the plug and wire it through the ceiling, add new plug once it’s through and plug it in

Definately an oversight if it can’t be. I’ll figure something out.

Wonder if I can hard wire it so I don’t have a 6’ cord sitting up there... I’m sure it’s possible.

So we just broke ground last week on our new house on the golf course... aka it’s crunch time! I got a lighting layout done by the master himself, but am sure I’ll have some questions along the way. First on the list - so I’m going with the liftmaster 8500w opener, which sits next to the...

Nice to see a fellow MN'er on here - I would have to be the guy to have to back those boats into that garage haha.

A few of my friends have converted their openers to the jack shaft version that is mounted to the front wall instead of the ceiling - no long belts to deal with. https://www.liftmaster.com/for-homes/garage-door-openers/battery-backup-garage-door-openers/model-8500 Think it’s worth it? Pros/cons?
