LLT 4Ft LED Vapor Proof Light Fixture 36W

LLT 4Ft LED Vapor Proof Light Fixture 36W, 3500K (Warm Light) 2700lm, 120VThe light does not come with any kind of connection cord. You have to provide it. Most suitable would be an SJT or SVT 18 gauge, 2 conductor round wire cable. This is like the type of cord you might find powering your computer. Most can save money by salvaging an extra computer power cable and cutting the IEC side end off, and leaving the standard plug. If you need a cord longer than the standard 6 foot cord, home centers sell this type of power cord. Some of it is outdoor rated. To save money, you could even buy a 16 gauge outdoor extension cord (a 50 foot cord is about $15) and just cut off the receptacle end.The nipple in the fixture is able to accept a cord up to about 0.360 inches. That covers just about any kind of cable in the 16 to 18 gauge range (2 or 3 conductor). The internal wiring looks like it is about 18 gauge (remember this is a 36 watt fixture, large gauge wiring is not needed). After inserting the power cord, you make your connections (only the HOT and NUETRAL are needed; there is NO ground connection, so only a 2 conductor cord is all that is required), you turn the outer capture to squeeze the power cord to seal the fixture. LLT provides a removable "quick" connect block inside the enclosure, but you can choose to use traditional small wire nuts (not provided) if you feel that is more reliable, as there is enough room to accommodate them. The fixtures can be "daisy-chained" as power at one end of the fixture is brought to the other end of the fixture. Remember to seal the unused opening to maintain the vapor barrier, a small leftover piece of power cord works great for that.When I opened each of the access covers on the 7 lights I ordered, the seal lining the door came off (it had a spot of soft glue on the door itself). Fortunately it is easy to place it back in the recess side of the fixture. A flat-head screwdriver and a light touch to guide the soft seal places it back into its groove.I did not experience finding anything rattling around inside the fixture. Not sure how that could even happen as all the mounting screws and retainers are in a sealed plastic bag. I would recommend that you find better mounting screws especially if you are placing the fixture on sheet rock. The included anchors can easily spin out in sheet rock.The manual: The English measurement shown of 2.78" for the 850mm measurement is wrong, the correct conversion is 850mm = 33.46 inches.I do agree with others that the light output is very good, and that the diffusion of the LED lights is excellent. The stainless steel mounts are suitable for the very light-weight fixture, and can be bent slightly to adjust tension if they are too loose or tight. I have no doubts after mounting them that they will hold.Some may be wondering if the nipple ends can be removed and fitted with standard 1/2" PVC electrical connectors. It does not appear that that would be an option, as the base is molded into the fixture and has a fine thread. You would have to do some creative modification or find some kind of adapter.Very good value for the money.

I really do not need waterproof or vapor proof lights, but these lights are very nice.I use these lights (2 ft. and 4 ft.) for my basement work and storage areas. I first bought some a few years ago and, when I needed to add another light fixture, I was glad to find them still available. That suggests to me that the company is still around and a making a successful product.These are great lights. First they are made to be hardwired and the hardwiring is pretty easy. They are also very light weight, which makes them easy to install over your head. Once installed the lights are plenty bright. And finally, they are quiet with no hum at all in any of my 8 light (I have other makes of LED fixtures that do buzz, and it can be annoying). Oh, when the switch is turned off, the lights have an slight afterglow that lasts for several seconds, which I find kind of cool

This is great light! I love it. Although the wiring directions were non-existant it was very easy to wire myself. The center connector is for the ground (green) wire and the white and black go on either side of the middle ground wire on the internal wiring block. I am rating this a full 5 stars even though I had to return the first damaged light. I use this light on my covered deck over the BBQ and it is plenty bright enough.

I've purchased 4 of these fixtures and all operate perfectly. The housings are durable and the mounting brackets are simple yet effective. These lights wire up in series without issue.As others have said, rattling parts inside the fixture is not uncommon as the screws for the wire terminal blocks tend to come loose. Of the four I purchased, only 1 had no rattles. Likewise, only that 1 had wiring for the ground connection. The other 3 had wiring for hot and neutral only.The issue are minor and don't affect performance. Light output is very good and the price is unbeatable. I've already recommended them to friends and family looking to wire up lights in attics, garages, sheds, etc. I'll definitely be buying more as I work through my project list.

Can't say enough about the High level of customer service received from LED Lighting Tech, ASD Lighting Corp. Ordered 2 vapor proof fixtures 6 months ago and work great. One fixture no longer worked. Emailed company and within 3 days I had new replacement fixture no questions asked and no expense. Quality customer service like this is what sets companies apart from the competitors. Would highly recommended and will do business again. They care about customer satisfaction!!!!!!

Ordered 4 of these in the past, good item for the money. Ordered an additional one recently, came missing hardware, broken housing, did not work when wired up. Amazon sent a replacement which worked when wired up but was again missing parts. Bad quality control.

Very well made and easy to install fixture. I install lots of them for customers and for 5he money, cant beat it. I put in more 4000k than any other, both 2ft & 4ft.Comes with cord connectors for both ends so it makes it easy to wire them with rubber fixture or drop cords.Cant fail

Bought 12 of these for my garage. They WERE nice and bright... pay attention to the description if you are ordering... there are both bright and warm white ones. 2 of them already died and I replaced them. Now I have 3 more that are flickering. These did not last for more than 2 years in a garage that is environmentally controlled. They were wired in properly with the proper voltage and feed wire. Don't waste your time on these. Generous in giving this 2 stars.
