Any recommendations for LED floodlight/security light to hang on garage?

[newbury]

Want to light an area about 40x20 feet.

I don't have a recommendation but I do have an application for a security LED floodlight, solar powered, motion activated, in case anyone has a suggestion. Thanks in advance. Newbury, hope you don't mind me piggy-backing your post.

I'll be following. Need some kind of light on the far end of my carport.

18W LED Security Light, 18lm 5K Motion Sensor Light Outdoor, IP65 Waterproof ETL Listed, Dusk to Dawn Flood Light for Garage, Yard, Porch, Patio - - Amazon.com

We have had the above light since the start of July. It does a really good job lighting up the area. With it being LED, it is low power usage. We have this one set to come on as a dusk to dawn light.

Now if you want solar powered, we have these on our deck Aootek 182 Led Solar outdoor motion sensor lights upgraded Solar Panel to 15.3 in2 and 3 modes(Security/ Permanent On all night/ Smart brightness control )with IP65 Waterproof with Wide Angle(2pack) - - Amazon.com

Yet they aren't as powerful as the wired LED. Yet, they do well lighting up our deck and the last all night We have them set on a low light setting and when it detects motion it kicks up to high.

20 x 40 is not a very large area. Almost any LED will do that. I have a larger area than that lit with 3 small housing 5W floods I got at Big Lots. It isn't daylight, but it's enough I can see the entire area on the camera all night. If you're powering with 110 VAC line power, any basic flood type unit over 100W (10W or less) equivalent should be more than enough. If you want it to look pretty, it might cost a bit more.


I've never had much luck with solar units. They last a year or two and they're done.

I bought a UFO LED,, and have been VERY happy with it,, something like this,,

12W Super Bright LED Garage Ceiling Lights Deformable - IP65 Waterproof Dusk to Dawn LED UFO High Bay Light Fixture - Tribright 6K 15, Lumens E26 for Commercial Warehouse Workshop Wet Location - - Amazon.com

For security, I would think you want a 6000K rather than a "warm" color ?
At 120 watts, and being on 12 hours a day, this light would cost about $60 per year to run,,

I bought some of these and was amazed at how well they worked. No special light fixture needed. Motion sensors and light sensors 1200 lumens and only 13 watts and under $10 each.

They work best on driveways and parking lots where tree limbs blowing in the breeze don't set them off and only one light should be used in an area because 2 bulbs shining on each other causes them to not work properly.

Really happy with our ring floodlight cams. They have a panic alarm you can activate. I've ran off 5 or 6 people at our business that showed up after hours that seemed to be up to no good.

I purchased an LED TUNNEL light. They use them to light tunnels. It's 200 watts but puts out the light of a 1,000 watt incondecent light.
