I have transformed my garage into a work shop to do some things with my small business. I am going to be doing some assembly work, shipping and light work out there and the lighting is bad. I just have one , 4 foot tube light up there.

I have been searching to improve the lighting and come across this idea. Fairly cheap and simple to install. Looks like it would help eliminate shadows and dark spots and could work for me.


Anyone used them or even seen them in person

Is that a prefab unit or something you are trying to make yourself with LED modules? If trying to do that with a bunch of Feit 2' fixtures that would not be cheap or easy. And it would be pointless unless you needed that much light for painting a car or something.

I’ve been looking into it as well, looks much better than the old neon tube lighting.

Which ones are you considering the big panel you posted above? I have 3 of the old style lights in mine currently, not sure which ones to replace them with

Put 6 UFO lights in my 30x40x12 and they are bright as hell and were easy to hard wire on a switch.

Yea, I need a simple solution and this seems to be one of them. I can buy 2 sets and do what I need to do. I already have power up there and just need to lay it out. I need light and I dont need a lot of shadows. I think this will accomplish that since the light comes from so many different areas

Thinking about it for my gym. I'll have to work the existing ceiling fan around or (or lose the fan altogether - I'm not against a floor fan if absolutely necessary.

I watched a YT video where some guys temu-d the frick out of their crappy garage to turn it into a showstopper and those hexagon kits were part of it. I'll look it up but it's looked great when they were done.

My buddy has them and they’re pretty good. Way more light for working on the cars and it’s just looks cool too.

Awesome. I ordered a kit that has 17 hexagons so its a big kit. Other than my garage door opener, I dont have a lot of obstacles to work around. Looking forward to installing them Tuesday afternoon. My garage is way too dark

I mean, he should have known that you cant mix a two part epoxy is both parts are "Part B". duh


He seems to love him some cheap shite. Not sure I want him working on my car.

Those TEMU cabinets are shite. He could have gotten Husky or Cobalt and had a much better cabinet for not much more money and NO shipping damage. LOL

Will do. I left for the landfill around 11 o'clock and it still said it was going to be delivered today. When I got home from the landfill, the order said it would be arriving tomorrow. I hate it when Amazon does that.
