I think I bought 40-50 4' clear bulbs.... knock on wood not one had failed.... I turn them on 6-7 days a week 8-14 hrs a day.

I need to change out every bulb in my garage at home..... what mounting ends do you guys use? ... and I think I read you guys connect end to end... what connectors have you guys found to be the best?

they come with a connector to daisy chain them, the newer connector is longer so it works much better. for the outlet end I use "mickey mouse " power cords

Do you have any spare long style connectors I can try before I throw out the non-working lights again?

Ken,

I have thrown (2) away already and haven't gotten around to replacing these 3....It could be the connector, but I have tried wiggling the light and nothing. On the first ones which failed, I hooked them up directly to the lead wire and still didn't work.

I'd put money on the connector M-M connector. One of mine takes a tap to turn on. I've roughed in 6 outlet boxes in my garage, and will likely just plug each fixture into an outlet individually.

Does anyone still have the led's for sale? I plan on using them in my garage. I will need to know lumens, length of led's and so on. I have 10'6" walls, with a ceiling height of 15', so I will need to know if these led's will throw adequate light to the floor. If they will work, I will need enough to cover 34'x56'. I am also looking for two motion flood/security lights for each outside end of the garage. Thanks.

Cut and paste from an older thread on the lights. You can chain 5 together, total power for all 5 is 200W.

Pics below are with 1 single light in an otherwise completely dark shop. I am sure they will light better once I get the shop boarded and painted BRIGHT white.

Very low profile, screw them right to your ceiling. They only weigh a few oz. each


Below is a comparison of 1 fixture in my garage, only source of light.


Testing.... i held the LED fixture right beside the t12 fixture for comparison.

2 bulb 40W T12.


Single 4 ' LED
