What did you do in your garage today..?

Are those the ones with the remote and motion detection?

Nope, they don't carry those anymore, which is a big bummer for me. I have two of the motion ones and love them. They're plug and play and also have a remote you can mount anywhere as opposed to needing a wall switch, but you never need it because it just turns on whenever you walk into the room. I have one installed in my garage. The current one has a pullstring, or if you want to use a light switch the switch has to control an outlet. I suppose you could use a smart outlet, but that's a pain. Each light has a power socket you can use for daisy chaining or to power other stuff, but when I tested them they were passthrough (always on). So unless the first one is plugged into a switch-controlled socket, you have to pull the chain on each of them. Would have been nice to have the chain control both the light and the socket.
I have a bunch of these. In the basement that I am refinishing I hard wired one into an existing switched ceiling light fixture and then daisy chained another 3 lights into the hard wired one. Flip a switch and they are all powered on. Great lights and great value.

FWIW, I haven't had any Barrinas die on me yet. I have something like 16 installed various places. All of Gary's died though. Costco lights are $8/1000 lumens, Barrinas are $4/1000 lumens. Barrinas are also available in different lengths if that matters. I have only used the 4' 5000 Lumen 5000K ones.
