For Bellingham sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.

Warehouses around Bellingham often still run 400 W metal halide or sodium high bays that take minutes to strike up. LED comes on instantly and usually uses less than half the power.
