We’ve added linkable linear LED light fixtures to our home, commercial, and industrial product lines. The 5-foot fixtures can be used for anything from parking garage, warehouse, and tunnel lighting to supermarket, workbench, or home garage lighting. These LED fixtures can be easily connected with compatible Super Bright LEDs accessories to create a powerful, energy-efficient light series.

Using no more than 50 watts of power, the 4- and 5-foot linear LED lights emit 5,500 or 6,500 lumens, respectively, of bright natural white illumination. They’re designed to replace 250- or 320-watt fluorescent tube light fixtures but will last five times longer. These LED fixtures illuminate instantly and don’t emit the yellow-green hue that is typical of fluorescent lights.

The weatherproof linkable lights have sturdy aluminum housings and shatterproof polycarbonate lenses. They’re dust tight as well as water and impact resistant. Twenty 5-foot fixtures can be connected in a series, and up to 25 4-foot fixtures can be linked. Mounting brackets are included for wall or ceiling installation, and a suspension kit is also available.

One of the most important decisions you can make regarding protection from electrical storms is the installation of a whole house surge protector. This will protect all the sensitive electronic equipment in your home from surges and transient voltages from lightning as well as electrical surges from many other sources.

Lightning strikes carry millions of volts and cause the deaths of many people every year, so it’s important to learn how to stay safe when these storms arrive. Quite a few people have actually died from electric shocks delivered by phone lines during telephone conversations, so portable phones are much safer than corded phones. Because copper pipes can carry electric current, it’s important to avoid using or touching water faucets during a storm. One of the most dangerous places you can be in a storm is a small boat, so it’s important to get to shore as quickly as possible as soon as you see evidence of an incoming electrical storm.

Everyone living in gulf states like Texas should educate themselves about storm safety, by studying government websites and reading available literature. For more information, please use these links to visit the following important websites:
