I put up a string of construction lights with 100w CFL’s for “temporary use” some 15 years ago. Plugged in to a switched outlet. Great for most things unless you need some really good lighting on a shop project. Your building size is same as mine. Will need two sets for best coverage but mine is cold storage on one end. There is enough light to get by if needed at that end

do you just want to be able to SEE when walking in the dark, or are you working in that area ?.... I put 60 or 100 (equiv) WATT LED screw in bulbs with the old screw in base and mount them on 10 ft centers..Simple / cheap/ last for years... That gives plently of light to walk around and move things, etc.. If this is a SHOP and your working with hand tools, then you need MORE LIGHT closer to the Work..

About to run power to our pole barn and want some light suggestions. Pole barn is 40x60x13. Trusses set on 4ft centers with a 2/12 bottom pitch. At some point one side will be closed in but it's not at the moment. Any suggestions on lights? Brand, number, size, placement, etc?
