I have a garage in Lancaster that needs some lights with a switch wired in. Also a 220v line ran(alrdy a beaker for the line) Panel and wires are all in the same room and on the exterior of the walls. Ceiling is about 10-12 feet high.

When do you want it done? I can possibly make some time. Also important is where you are located?

What kind of lights are you looking for or are you looking for suggestions?

Here are a couple projects that I have done this past year:

Basic 3 Lamp T8 fixtures (not the best fixtures for the application but free is free):

Same fixtures but with a lens and ran using conduit since there is finished space above the garage:

6 fixtures, 4 lamps each. 2 more in the adjacent garage. This setup is bright and expensive. Gets the job done well though.

I have wanted to do an install using LED fixtures but the cost of entry is pretty high. I have one LED strip wired in my new cooler and it is really really nice.

@tpgsr I need 2 rows of light to span 16 feet. So prob 3 lights that are 4 foot per row. Probably T8’s as I hear that they react better to cold? Plus one more light wired under a overhang. Garage is in Lancaster off pavement. Right now I have a two 8 foot lights running in the middle of the garage and that’s it. Lighting is horrible!

I am at William and Bowen. I am busy today and Thursday but I can take a look at it any other day if you want.

I can make recommendations on the type and spacing to get you proper lighting.

Shoot me a text whenever. 716-548-0610

Bump.

I really need some help with my garage, trying to un-cluster some stuff.

Anyone that can help out, shoot me a PM. Like to get this wrapped up before Summer’s end.

I texted you. Sorry, I read the PM on my phone and then forgot about it… I do that often actually.
