outdoor barn lights could be the next toilet paper!

I had seen a few lights like this and wondered, but it's essentially the no-name (Stasun) Chinese stuff. I tend to avoid that sort of thing.

seems like each panel is 50W, and you can get them in 2, 3 or 4 panel versions, maybe 1 panel too.

Metal Halide is an upgrade over mercury vapor. LED is an upgrade over Metal Halide.

I have 20 of the lights that I posted earlier, and installed another one at my parent's house. They work well and there is obviously no bulb to burn out. Tremendous amount of light.

And they sell the LED version of that light with a photo sensor for $100

What voltage?
There are drop in replacements for the metal halide parking lot lights, if the voltage works. These work great at 240/277 volts...but most will work at 120V as well.

(just a representative example):
