T5 4' Vapor proof lights from KB lighting in Philadelphia around $75 per fixture with bulbs. I rehabbed my touchfree and have not had any issues.
What model # from KB Lighting did you use? How many and how did you lay out your touchfree bay?

I just called them and told them I needed 4' vapor proof light. I am local so I can go right there and pick them up but everyone around here says no-one comes close to them for prices on lights.
My bay is 45' and I have 2 at both ends of the bay 8' in that are always on, and then I have 3 on each wall 6' high from the entrance to where the Washworld is parked, that come on with a wash purchase.

One of my customers had the power company convert her T-12 110 watt H.O fixtures to T-8 32 watt. She had 2 – 110 Watt H.O bulbs in each fixture they gutted the fixture and installed 4 – T-8 32 watt bulbs into each fixture. As I’m standing there unimpressed in the rain looking at how dim her car wash lighting is she and her husband pull up. They are not happy with the outcome of this project. She tells me that the power company said she would be getting more light from the new T-8 lights than she was getting from the T-12’s. She’s going to definitely be saving money on her lighting bill. I think I’ll keep my 110 watt H.O fixtures for a little longer
