Looks like Feit Electric came up with an upgrade to their very popular LED shop light. The new Feit Electric LED Shop Light still puts out the same 3700 lumens and still comes with shatterproof lamps, perfect when you're considering the safety aspect as compared to fluorescent tubes. And unlike fluorescent tubes, LED bulbs are mercury free. I installed 4 of the older version of this shop light in my garage so that I can detail my car indoors or at night. Sure, nothing beats daylight when it comes to spotting swirl marks and marring on your car's finish. But the LED shop light by Feit Electric does a good job in providing enough light for me to do my work. And this new version is linkable! So turn one on and the rest will switch on as well. That's just a convenience that I wish I had. You can get around this by hard-wiring several light fixtures to one switch but that requires a bit of work. If you just want a simple and inexpensive solution that you can just plug into a standard outlet, then the Feit Electric LED Shop Light is the fixture for you. Compare that to a standard fluorescent solution that could cost you over $100. In cold weather, fluorescent bulbs can take time to become fully bright. The Feit Electric LED Shop Light will instantly become bright when turned on. So if safety, convenience and cost-effectiveness is important to you when shopping for a shop light, then check out the Feit Electric LED Shop Light.

What is the model number of this? I cannot seem to find it on http://www.feit.com/
I want to read the manual before I buy on how to hardwire these lights to my existing switch.
Hello @Unknown, I'm not too sure what the model number is for the Feit Electric LED Shop Light since the actual box only indicates that it is item 689518 which also is the Costco item number. This probably isn't what you're looking for, but it's the only thing that is listed. Sorry for not being of any more help. Good luck!
Hello Unknown ... not intended to be hard-wired, but you can. Otherwise, what you'll need is either [a] a ceiling receptacle on the switched leg [not the garage door opener]; I had to convert one of my flush, round ceiling boxes [which don't accommodate receptacles]; I did that by 'applying' the shallowest 4" sq box I had on-hand. OR [b] if you have a 'porcelain lamp holder, switch out the bulb for a screw-in receptacle plug [need only be a 2-prong].
Hi @affromma, thanks for sharing your experience and providing some helpful tips on installing the Feit Electric LED Shop Light. I'm sure this information will be greatly appreciated for those people wanting to install the Feit Electric LED Shop Light in their garage or workshop.
Is the linkable socket constantly on, or does it turn off when the fixture pull chain is pulled off? In other words, if two or more fixtures were linked, could you shut one off if you wished and would the rest of the lights in the link remain on?
Hello @RY, I believe that the linkable socket is always on in regards to 2 or more Feit LED Shop Lights being linked together. Not only that but, you could still turn off each individual shop light by pulling on its respective chain.
