    I FINALLY got around to upgrading my lights in my shop. I had 2 small fixtures that were OK for a garage, but were definitely not enough for a workshop. I installed 9 Barrina T8 LED fixtures distributed around my shop to dramatically increase the light output as well as more evenly light the space. Overall I'm very happy with the results and this video will show you how I did it!
    Shop lighting is often overlooked as a critical component to a well functioning space. Having enough light is critical for craftsmanship and safety. If you are looking to upgrade your lighting setup to a high efficiency LED array - don't miss this! Barrina makes some very low cost lights readily available through Amazon. Be sure to check the links below.
    Thank you to the sponsor of today's video, NewAir, who make really awesome portable space heaters for garages and workshops. The little 120V heater I used for this build is absolutely perfect for those cold days working in and around the shop. Details below!

    I upgraded my 2 car garage shop lights to l.e.d. back in June of this year. I love it and what a huge difference in my woodworking finishes & stains. I bought (4) 4ft LED light fixtures (2 lights per unit) at 5000 lumens each. They are linked together and Wired into the original light fixture in the ceiling on a single switch. It does not interfere with the garage door opener. My lights came from Walmart and Total costs was less than $100.00. CONGRATS on a super job and the baby is getting big.

  • @enginesnstuf
    @enginesnstuf 4 года назад +4

    Yep. I put up twelve of those exact fixtures. The ones I used were 8' long. A few months into use they are still working well.

  • @davidfrank2824
    @davidfrank2824 4 года назад +7

    I'm like you I'd like a lot of light in my work area. I have a ton of fluorescent light in my garage right now. Where I live we have very cold Winters and half the time most of my lights won't come on for the fact that it's too cold in my garage. So this winter I'm going to use the same LEDs that you are using. I'm tired of having to go out into the garage and waste my heat for an hour just to be able to turn the lights on. You are the second person I have seen using these lights. I am convinced now that this is the way to go.
    I enjoyed your video and look forward to your next one.

  • @rahimlee5413
    @rahimlee5413 4 года назад +2

    I use these in my basement server room. I put 3 on the light socket with an adapter and 3 on the other side to an outlet on the wall. I flip the switch for partial light and then have the second set powered by a smart switch so I just give a voice command they come on. These are good lights. Nice install.

    I upped the lumens in my shop recently but my walls are dark which tends to trap light out so I put emergency blankets on the garage door to act as both a radiant heat reflector and light diffuser. Worked well.

    I used some different stuff that was on sale locally, but lighting is my second favorite shop upgrade so far. And my original lighting was a broken halogen spotlight and an under powered flood light, offset so half the shop had no light at all. Looks great man. Enjoy being able to see!

  • @Richard.Hybels
    @Richard.Hybels 3 года назад +1

    Took your recommendation and wow! As you said for yourself I should have done this years ago. People have complained about the mounting brackets but I have no problem with them. The one bummer is the cord with on/off switch can’t be added to so switch has to be about 3 feet from light which is 6 feet from ground

    So i did something similar but i put more outlets in the ceiling. I ended with 8 outlets and just plugged the leds into them. But it also allows me to add a drop for extension cords in several places. Lights make a HUGE difference when working and filming 👍🏻

    • @jamesp739
      @jamesp739 7 месяцев назад

      Yep, with outlets in the ceiling, you can add an extension cord reel (or two). Cord reels are great for keeping extension cords off the floor, yet handy when you need them.

  • @pmdinaz
    @pmdinaz 4 года назад +3

    just put 8 of these in my garage, i just finished building it and the inspector looked at me like i was crazy because my plans had the outlets in the ceiling instead of the 'can' lights. It's great! couldn't be easier to do. Truly plug and play (in light). Nothing to do with your video, but i chose Barrina as well.

I also added one 4’ kit on the garage door for when the door is open and blocks the overhead lighting…Man oh man. It’s an operating room in here.

    I had a couple of 4-lamp floros in my shop that were replaced with 4' LEDs, some from Costco. A remarkable difference. Totally agree that more light is better. Didn't bother calculating lumen/ft^2. Simply installed as many fixtures as possible. As I also work on automotive paint, the lights in the center are either a warm or mixed spectrum. Used a cold spectrum on the side lights and the lights above the benches for the machine restorations. Seems like I can see more anomalies in the metal with a cold light vs paint that prefers a warmer spectrum.

    We just built our house and I went over the top on the electrical(commercial/industrial electrician by trade). I put a 100a sub panel and plenty of circuits throughout our 1280 sq' attached garage. Lighting wise, I put switched receptacles in the ceiling and ran 5 8' strip LEDs per row(3 row, 15 total) like these. 5000k/7200 lumen/each. I think the I think they inflated the lumen numbers a bit though. I have installed 7000 lumen industrial lights(expensive) on jobs and they are brighter than these. But these are still eat bright and my garage looks like daylight!

    I have 8 of the Barina lights in my garage. I added a wireless hub for my garage door opener and found out that LEDs were confusing my door remotes. There is a fix for the RFI problem that is as expensive as the lights were lol. When the lights are off all the remotes work fine.

    I have been putting off putting lights where my garage door would block them, but now that it's winter, I realize I really need them.
