8ft LED Shop Light 65W 8500 Lumens 3500K/4000K/5000K 80+ CRI 0–10V Dimmable Ribbed Frosted Diffuser 120–277V

What environments typically specify an 8-foot linear fixture at 8,500 lumens?

This output level is commonly specified for storage aisles, service corridors, light-duty work areas, back-of-house retail, utility rooms, and maintenance spaces where moderate ambient levels are required and fixture spacing is set to match the aisle width and mounting height.

What does 8,500 lumens at 65W translate to in efficacy?

The fixture produces 8,500 lumens at 65W, which calculates to 130.8 lm/W. Maintained workplane illuminance depends on mounting height, row spacing, ceiling reflectance, and whether fixtures are installed in continuous runs.

When is the 65W package a better fit than higher-output 8-foot options?

The 65W package is often used when the ceiling height is lower, when aisle spacing is tighter, or when the project requires reduced wattage per zone while still maintaining practical visibility for navigation, storage access, and routine task work.

How does the ribbed frosted diffuser affect glare and lens uniformity?

A ribbed frosted diffuser spreads the emitted light and reduces direct view of the LED array, which can lower perceived high-angle brightness. It also helps even out luminance along the lens surface, which is useful in continuous rows where hotspots between modules are not preferred.

How should 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K be selected for utility and work spaces?

3500K is often selected for mixed-use back-of-house areas that transition between public and service spaces. 4000K is commonly specified for warehouses and general task areas where a neutral white appearance is standard. 5000K is typically specified where contrast supports label reading, inspection, and safety visibility.

What does 0–10V dimming enable in long linear rows?

0–10V dimming supports occupancy-based control and scheduling while allowing commissioning adjustments by row or zone. This helps align measured foot-candles with the project requirements without changing fixture spacing after installation.

How does 120–277V input support commercial branch circuit planning?

The 120–277V driver supports common commercial voltages, including 277V lighting circuits. This can reduce SKU complexity on projects that include mixed voltages across tenant spaces or building types.

What does damp-location rating cover for this fixture type?

Damp-location rating covers areas subject to humidity and intermittent condensation, such as unconditioned storage rooms and covered service areas. For washdown, direct spray, or outdoor exposure, a wet-location or sealed vapor-tight luminaire is typically required.

What certifications apply, and how are they typically used in submittals?

This fixture is cULus listed, which supports electrical safety certification for North American installations. In submittals, this is typically referenced alongside voltage, lumen output, dimming method, and location rating for compliance documentation.

What is the rated life and warranty term for maintenance planning?

The fixture is rated for 50,000 hours and includes a 5-year warranty. For maintenance planning, track quantities and locations by zone to support consistent replacement planning and warranty documentation.
