    "bay" doesn't necessarily mean mechanic workshop though...

    I converted to these. Twice as bright half the wattage.

    I'm attempting to go from 30,000 lumens to 130,000 lumens in my home shop.

    I just ordered 8 of these: LED Shop Light Fixture 8ft, T8, 120W 12500lm 6000K, Clear Cover, 3Rows. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Plus 12 of these to retrofit my current 6x fixtures.

    Adding 2 layers of these thin white panels to help with the brightness.

    The ceiling only has 1 of 2 layers on in this pic.

    Got all the white panels up on the garage walls. Replaced 1/2 the 4' light tubes with 4' LED tubes. You can see the difference in the pics. Paneling the ceiling remains. Still waiting on 8 x 8' LED tubes to arrive.
