    Will 12 - 8' lights be enough in a 30x40?

    I am hanging them just a few inches from 12 ft Yes there is one row that would be covered if i had all three of my 10x10 garage doors open at same time.

    Will 12 - 8' lights be enough in a 30x40?

    I have 40x40x12 i purchased a couple of 4 ft 4 bulb t8 lamps today home depot had on sale for $39.97 each! I originally thought of putting 4 rows of 4 evenly spaced but the first two i put up is spaced for 5 rows of 5 Do you think 25 4 ft 4 bulb t8 is way to much?

    Re: #4 or #6 for ground wire What size ground wire should i use ? My local home depot was out of #4 and he said they didnt show any on order but had #6 . I wonder if no one around here uses #4? The cost difference doesnt matter to me just knowing its right.

    I used rigid so that the power co wire could be supported by it instead of adding eye bolt in wall. And because a neighbor gave me a full piece for free!
