One of the most common questions we get is "Should I use a UFO high bay or a linear high bay?" Both are a great option for many different applications. But there can be one better than the other for certain applications. UFOs have become very popular due to their compact size, cheap price, and good light output. Linear high bays are also popular, have a more traditional look, and are a little larger. So which is better?

It's been quite some time since I've written a blog post.  We've had quite a few changes that I'd like to introduce to keep you all in the loop! First things first- we've added a Petersen to our business! Carter was born early September of this year and has kept mom and dad busy.    Here he is helping mom ship orders!  We are currently in the process of restocking all of our products, so please bear with us as we wait for things to filter in.  We plan to have an end of the year sale on our Petersen...
