Who is the manufacturer of the lights?
I have a number of florescent 8 footers that are starting to dim again.
Had replaced tubes and went to electronic ballasts a number of years ago.
Cold weather performance is pretty lousy but better than the standard ballasts.

What brand are the lights? Have a link?

I love the LED lights I installed in my man cave garage . I mounted them about 6 " below the ceiling on three walls . I was a little nervous it might not be bright enough WOW was I wrong ! Between the white painted walls and the white metal ceiling it is VERY bright .

The fixtures are from Lithonia Lighting. 8400 Lumins each. Got them thru Graybar electrical supplier.

Thanks!

Looking good, Paul....thanks for the update, amigo!

On the subject of lighting - my 2 car garage has only ever had one standard light bulb in the center.

Finally after 23 years I installed two 4' long additional fixtures on each side. One is an LED one from HD and the other a two bulb florescent someone was throwing away that works perfectly.

When I go out there now at night and switch on those lights - it's like a whole new world!

One day I will install a better system.

Maybe I missed this, but why did you build with that corner cut out versus just making the 2 walls intersect into a corner? Seems you are missing some space and made it more complex.

Are these the same lights

Lights

Those are by Philips, mine are by Lithonia. But same 3500 lumans.

Surprised no one asked sooner. I cut the corner back because if I would run the walls out the corner of the building would have blocked our view from the deck and back window of the house. We live on a golf course and we can see the pond and didn't want to block the view.

Yes this inside corner created MUCH more work. I now have two valleys on the roof and the roof framing was more difficult. It also adds some character to the outside of the addition. I wanted something besides a long straight wall.

Looks great, Paul.

I was wondering the same thing but didn't want to ask what seemed like a foolish question.
I would have just made that 'corner' on a diagonal and put a large window in it.
Nice project and the roof turned out great.

I kinda like the inside corner because I can hide stuff in it. ;)

Nice, I see that as perfectly reasonable, well thought out reasons to make more work.

Added one of these cord reels. 40' of cord mounded in the middle of the garage.

Working on moving my junk out of the storage unit and into the shop. I've moved everything 50 times.

Smart move I did the same in mine . Centrally located it can reach anywhere in the garage .

Cool project, good work.

I remember when my shop was finally done, it seemed huge! Now, I'm shifting around again to gain a few feet here and there. It fills up quick.

Finally completely out of my storage unit. That $300/month can be used somewhere else. Don't tell the building department I've taken occupancy, but it just a shop. It's not a crowded as this photo indicates. Now that I've got all my crap here I can work to organize it and make some space.

I was able to save 3 birch doors from the dumpster at work. 33" x 80" x 1 3/4" solid wood they were sliding doors so there is no hardware prep cut outs on them. Perfect for bench tops. Almost too pretty to use.
