I just wanted to get ideas on how any of you have installed lights in your machine sheds. I have a 45' by 88' machine shed with 14' tall walls. Two electricians have said to put two runs of lighting the length of the building. Each run would be 1/3 of the distance from the outside walls. The rafters are on an 8 foot spacing so a light would be on every other rafter. Five rafters would have two lights hanging on them each 1/3 of the distance from the outside wall. The front half of the building would be on one switch and the rear half would be on another. The light fixtures would be the typical screw in bulb type. I would use the screw in LED lights that have the panels of light emitting diodes. Was thinking about using 14,000 lumen bulbs. Ten of those should provide plenty of light at a fairly economical operating cost plus they would power up immediately in cold weather. I like the bulbs that have four adjustable panels each so that the light could be focused somewhat downward. I have big sliding doors on each end so 10,000 lumen LED exterior lights will also be installed there. Any other ideas? Thank you.
