It is absolutely amazing all the B/S to relight a 2 car garage, quasi
whore house (stippled ceiling), maybe workshop.

Close to 100 posts, most totally crap.

IES recommendations for a machine shop/wood shop call for 100 foot
candles maintained.

Using 2 lamp fixtures, approximately 19 fixtures are required for 100
FC maintained.


The future's so bright, I GOTTA WEAR SHADES.

mankind apply than to the sense of this difference?"
