Other Dimmable Lamps available are the Overdrive Lighting 8 watt CCFL  and 15 watt CCFL (Covered models).  While these lamps need to have other wattage Non Dimmable Spiral lamps to be used in conjunction to get the proper footcandle levels, we offer UNBEATABLE pricing. 


Other NEW Lighting information:

Several states around the country are now requiring that keyless sockets no longer be used in Agricultural Barns.  Engineered Products Company (EPCO) makes a light box and globe which is UL approved for Damp locations (which is what most states are requiring).  This fixture can seen on EPCO's website as their P/N 15050 and can be used with an existing junction box, so there is no rewiring that is needed to install these new fixtures and get your farms up to code.
