Lithonia Lighting LED shoplights deliver 35% energy savings over T12 fluorescent fixtures

"These new LED fixtures mimic the design of traditional fluorescent shoplights, but harness the power of LED to deliver significantly improved light quality," said Ryan Ramaker, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Lithonia Lighting. "They are easy to install, and feature integrated LEDs to eliminate the need for changing light bulbs." The LED shoplights illuminate spaces instantly with the flip of a switch, and are designed to remain on for extended periods of time with an average lifespan of 50,000 hours. Additionally, the energy-efficient LED technology offers 35 percent energy savings compared to a standard T12 fluorescent lamp fixture. New LED shoplights are cold start-rated to 0°F to help eliminate delay and flicker, which often occurs with traditional fluorescent fixtures when the weather is cold. Available in grey with black accents or a white finish, each shoplight is corded with a three-prong plug, making installation as easy as hanging the cable-or-chain mounting kit and plugging it into a standard outlet. Adjustable "S" hooks are included to control the direction of the light, and precut inserts are available to hang the fixture at angles to provide concentrated lighting for tools or equipment. The LED shoplights are available online or at leading hardware or electrical supply stores for $79.97 (1290L) and $99.97 (1292L).
