Final electrical inspection passed.

Looking good! Do you plan on mounting more lighting? I've got two 2-bulb florescents in my 2-bay garage at home and I still long for more lighting constantly. I'd mount as many lights as would fit in there with what you're planning on using it for.

Sam's Club sells LED shop lights for about $35 each. I have 2 in my 20x20 garage at home, and they are extremely bright. On a sunny day, I can walk into the garage, and it's just as bright as outside. Before, I had to wait for my eyes to adjust. Other advantages of LED: will never burn out, won't break them with impact, no hazmat bulbs. Also, these have pass-through power to directly connect to the next light, and are very low power, so you can easily daisy-chain several on one outlet.

They sell 10 packs for $309 ;-)

Freakin awesome, I'll check them out myself to maybe replace the fluorescents I have in my garage.

nice!!! i would consider this in the future!!!

I replaced the fluorescent in my garage with LED's and love the difference. Instant on, and better color output in my opinion. Much brighter as well.

I'm sorry for the recent silence. I cannot proceed with any other plans until I have power. Duke Energy requires up to 10 days to connect power, and it looks like they are going to use every day.

Good news for you! I just saw Sam's Club is having a sale on bulk LED shop lights - 10 for $284.98. I already bought this pack for the new garage and unfortunately paid $309.98. (I will see if they honor 30-day price guarantees.)

Nevertheless, if a few of you want to get together for a "group buy," I can confirm this is an excellent bargain.

I finally got the power connected today, and I'm very pleased with my lights and exhaust fan. The real advantage of having power is that the next contractor can run his power tools. Stay tuned...

...and to answer Andy's question in the group buy thread, yes...eventually.

Wow that place looks great Will...I can't wait to spill some oil on the floor :eek1:

I'm sure you'll do this, but COAT THE FLOORS NOW before there's eighty million things in the way like lifts and cabinets and stains, etc.

Lights look awesome! Bet its like standing out in the sunlight, lol.
