Eighteen panels, framed, with three-step brightness control. The same deep-coverage framed grid as our 18-panel flagship-width kit, nearly 16 feet wide, pushing past nine feet deep, with three brightness levels stepped from your existing wall switch. Run it bright for work, step it down for everything else.
Dimming is built into the kit, so there is nothing extra to buy or install. The light comes on at full brightness. Flip the wall switch off and back on within about a second, and it steps down to 60%. Do it again for 30%, and once more to return to full. That is the whole system. Your existing on/off switch is the only control.
Because the dimming is in the tubes, do not put this kit on a dimmer switch. A dimmer will not step the levels and can cause flicker. A plain on/off switch is all it needs. Light color stays 6500K daylight white at every level.
Why Add Dimming at This Size
An 18-panel kit puts out serious light (~72,000 lumens). In a multi-use garage, gym, or studio, that's exactly the kind of space where being able to drop to ambient matters. No dimmer, remote or proprietary controller. The wall switch is the only control, and a dimmer must not be installed on the circuit. Prefer a fixed install? The non-dimmable 18-panel is $100 less.
