I am not sure, I think they are just plain lights in there. It is terrible lighting for trying to detail cars in there, you can't see any swirls.

The building is an ex VW parts distribution center in MI. I don't think they changed anything over since he bought it 20 years ago.

I thought I had a picture of it, but we put in one of the Big *** Fans in last year. It is amazing how well that works. I highly suggest them.

All lighting except Gulf sign is LED.
The Big *** Fan was discounted 30% based on competitive bid. There are other providers out there and Big *** wants the business so shop around.
Shot from outside is through a screen so lighting is dimmed down some.

Only buying 10 or so lights and a fan and they are discounting 20% a good LED that may not look as good can be bought for 125.00 all day long so they really do make sense. FYI you could have stuck it to your tenant in CAM it's not a capital expense Those ballasts still use more electric than a new LED so amortize the cost over the length of the lease.
The issue was having to use the FPL certified installer. The credit dollars given exceed the $ amount it would cost to use their installers vs a "normal" electrician. That was the holdup. Lease is a simple lease not a NNN. On another note, I found this is my garage this morning. Found the car locally but it was a California car up to the point Tim Holt sold if to him last year.

I have been looking for one of those for years and years, but my favourite was always the Lime Green version.
