Like the post says, I’m in the market for exterior floods and I don’t want to conduct my own informal survey of everything available. I’m quite happy with the LED tubes I settled on for my interior fixtures, but I bought more duds than I care to admit before finding ones I really like. I also have concerns about the quality of LEDs, in this application.
I currently have two 20-amp branch circuits, one switched, one not, that run into five boxes. My plan is to run motion lights on the always on circuits and just floods on the switched one. I need five motion lights and five floods. Ideally something with high output and reliability.
Follow up question:
I am currently on a Delta-Wye configuration, spike-leg service. A number of the LEDs I’ve seen both fluorescent and flood advertise accepting anywhere from 120-277V. Theoretically I should be able to run these lights off the high leg in my system? It varies, but I’ve seen as much as 215V and as little as 165V. Too much to trust most 110V only devices on that leg, but within the range the lights advertise. Anyone have experience here?
