    About Brightness and Light Appearance
    industrial info icon

    Find the right lumen level to brighten your space. Then, compare the way warm, neutral, and cool lighting affect the appearance of everyday objects.

    Tape Lights

    Bend these flexible lights around corners or squeeze them into spaces where bulky fixtures won’t fit. They’re brighter than plug-in tape lights, so you can use them for inspections and other detailed work. They’re also a great choice to extend the life of your fluorescent or incandescent fixtures with energy-efficient LEDs. They have a higher CRI (color rendering index) than most other lights, so they illuminate subtle color differences. Each LED is inspected to make sure there are no visible differences in temperature and brightness, so you can combine multiple strips within the same space. Install them on any smooth surface—just peel and stick.
    You’ll need a driver to power these lights. Customize your setup: join multiple lights together, use connectors to bridge gaps between stairs or shelves, or add channels to diffuse light within your space (all sold separately).
    Note: To shorten a light, cut it at the marked intervals only. Cutting outside these marks can damage the circuit and create dead zones.
    Drivers
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tape Lights. Tape Lights, Drivers.
    Drivers provide a constant voltage to your tape lights, protecting the LEDs from power fluctuations. Built-in thermal protection helps extend the lifespan of these drivers, and they’re housed in a UL-listed enclosure suitable for wet locations. To install, feed the power source and tape light wire leads through the knockouts. Seal the entry points using a 1/2 trade size conduit fitting or cord grip. Inside the enclosure, connect the wire leads using the included lever connectors. Do not exceed the recommended tape length; to power longer lights, add another driver.
    IP67 Enclosure Rating—Drivers rated IP67 are sealed to withstand dust and temporary submersion.

    Outward Beam Direction

    Downward Beam Direction

    Light up large, open rooms where you need a quick setup and takedown, such as a room under construction. Just hang these lights from a ceiling up to 30' high and they’re ready to go. Connect up to 10 lights on a single circuit. The brighter the light, the further you should space them apart. All withstand humidity and moisture, so you can use them where it’s damp.
    Outward Beam Direction—Lights with an outward beam direction have straight sides, so they’ll direct some light to the ceilings and walls of your facility. Rated IP64, they’re sealed against splashing liquid and dusty conditions.
    Downward Beam Direction—Lights with a downward beam direction have angled sides, so they’ll direct more light towards the floor than lights with an outward beam direction.

    Light up remote spaces without having to keep track of a new cordless tool battery. These floodlights run on a Milwaukee M18 battery (sold separately). You can also power them with an extension cord (not included). These lights extend up to 7 ft. tall and have a pivoting head to direct light where you need it. When you're done using them, fold them up. They have a handle for easy transport.
    Built to handle tough jobsites, their legs and plastic lens resist impact. And they’ll work outdoors and in other wet areas—rated IP54, they’re sealed against splashing liquid and humidity. Plus, they’re protected against dirty, dusty conditions.
    Note: Battery life depends on the size of your battery.
