Well I have fifty 8 footers on the way. Hope I didn't make a mistake. I already have to hang and wire the fixtures again so rewiring isn't a big deal (all but three are mounted). I'm going from having sixteen 8ft florescent double bulb fixtures at 8 foot off the floor to 24 eight foot LED double bulb daylight fixtures 12 ft off the floor in my 24X48 shop. That should help these 65 YO eyes see details that were being missed. I also have four ft florescent fixtures I hang above my machines to add lighting and will have LED task lights on each machine. I plan to be able to see what I'm doing. After I first built my shop my late wife, who was an artist and had macular degeneration, complained I didn't light up the house as well as my shop. Had to explain that retrofitting is not as easy as installing lights during construction.
