Lights and insulation in garage door

[Gotcha640]

I'm going to put some foam board insulation in the garage door, and thinking about putting some low profile led lights in the boards.

I'm looking at the below or similar, 1 inch thick, 7 inch diameter, $13 each. Plan would be 4-6 of them, wired in series, on a plug. There's an outlet at the garage door opener.

I would plan on calling superbrightleds or get input here on if there are units designed to be daisy chained, or if they have an opinion on being in an east facing garage door in Houston (plan on hitting 120 in the summer, but can lights in the attic seem happy over 140).

Primary use would be nights with the door open for a breeze. Ideally I put same number of lights in the ceiling where they get covered by the open door, and when the door is closed I could have side lights for sanding and finishing.

Any thoughts?

Many have an issue with lighting above a garage door. In my case the horizonal rails are about 14' high. I have opposing 12'x12' doors 40' apart. I plan to install unistrut on the underside from rail to rail. I'll attach ridgid conduit running from door to door which TCP 105w highbays will attach to. 4 lights per conduit run. Flex will run from box to each ridgid conduit so the lights can be moved to find the best dispersion pattern. This will give me lighting no matter if the doors are open or closed.. Multiple 8' 65w strip lights mounted at 11' will be used in side bays on either side of the center bay. I'll be using dimmers but designing to have close to 100fc at work surface at full power. My shop is 40'x50' with a scissor trussed ceiling 10' walls to 17' peak.
