Bay lighting?

[Roz]

I am sure someone has asked in the past but wondered if anyone has good recommendations for bright LED bay lighting? Looking to upgrade our lights in one location.
Ideal solution would be a dimmable LED that can be controlled via a motion sensor so we can reduce electric costs when no one is around?

The easiest way to do this is if you have two fixtures in a bay then wire one of them to a motion sensor.

I installed the G&G LED in my auto bays and really like them. It reduced the shadow effect of the ceiling mount 8' fixtures.

They don't send a cord with these lights, do they?
Curious how you addressed the wiring ..

In my operation power to the existing lights is thru conduit. So, it was not an issue. If you need to have cords and inspectors won't complain there is a . connector for that. Here is one example - they are also available with round grommets. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Halex-1...Water-tight-Conduit-Connector-90661/100170032

The lights come with cord grips. If your existing lights are plugged into an outlet then you would have to purchase some SOOW cable. The cable will be hard wired inside the light, fastened by the cord grip, and the other end you will need a male receptacle plug end.

I could not see any electrical inspector allowing a plug in a SS Bay.

I wouldn’t either. A lot of times I’ve seen them though in the attics. Cord going through the ceiling.

Bays look nice! Trying to figure out the optimal lumens. Yours are 7K lumens which probably is enough. Guessing you have one pack per wall or two per bay?

These are the look I seek but the online reviews point me to another direction. Thx

4 per bay, (each corner) aprox 20 inches in from end if walls. This helps throw light into the parking lot.
My other site has 12k lights (they have 2 panels with 6k per panel) those i have wired where 1 panel per light will cut off at 11pm, At 6k per light and 4 in the bays its plenty but felt i wanted to add just a little bit more and not have to wire so much to have something cut out, so settled on the 7k.

I just installed the G and G led lights in some SS bays and some back lit awnings. This is not the cheapest way to go but they sure spread the light out nice. Kleenrite says 4 per bay on the $1200 per bay package but 2 per bay is plenty IMO. I think $600 per bay for a light with a 75,000 hour rating is good. They will pay for themselves many times over with the electrical savings over that span.

Do you have pictures of these?

How long have you had these in service? Want to know how they hold up and last

I haven't read the reviews on these particular lights but I have used similar looking ones. Ours also have polycarb lenses which are fine, UNLESS, you have an application where they will be on 100% of the time. Eventually the heat build up will either crack the lens or loosen the poured in gasket material. Glass lenses would be a better fit in that application in my opinion.

I posted a picture on Noob post back on JUly 21 of the G and G lights with 4 per bay and 2 per bay for reference.

Ones I linked to -
Had them in service several years. None have failed so far.
