Bring your old HID high bays back to life without touching the fixture housing — just unscrew the old lamp and screw in the new one. The LED-8132M40CD from Light Efficient Design is a 135W screw-in LED high bay retrofit lamp built to replace up to 400W HID (metal halide, mercury vapour or high-pressure sodium) in open reflector fixtures. People search for it as a high bay light, a round high bay LED, an HID retrofit bulb or a mogul-base high bay lamp — it's all the same job: a fast, low-labour lighting retrofit for warehouses, shops, arenas and garages where climbing a lift to swap a whole fixture simply isn't worth it.

The numbers make the case. This model draws 135W and delivers 18 600 lumens at 4000K neutral white, with a CRI of 80+ for clean, true-to-life colour on labels, wiring and inventory. It uses the EX39 mogul base found on the vast majority of industrial high bay sockets, and the "CD" version is a 347V lamp — the Canadian standard in commercial and industrial buildings — and it is continuously dimmable down to 20% through a wired 0-10V dimming circuit, with 12V auxiliary power on board to run occupancy sensors. Rated life is 50 000 hours (L70), it starts instantly with no warm-up, it operates from -40°F to 122°F, and the fanless design means silent operation. Dual-stage MOV protection with an integrated 10kA surge device and a potted, pre-burned-in driver protect it against vibration, moisture and line spikes. DLC code: S-DVYZK6.

This retrofit is made for open fixtures only — the classic aluminum or prismatic reflector with no lens or glass enclosure — and it's engineered to work in damp environments while resisting dust and insects. Think distribution centres, manufacturing floors, municipal garages, hockey arenas, farm buildings, big-box retail stockrooms and repair shops across Canada, where instant-on light pairs perfectly with motion sensors during long winter shifts. Need a different output or colour? Compare it with the 135W high bay retrofit in 5000K or step up to the 150W 4000K retrofit. Order yours and cut your lighting load today.

Built for the realities of industrial ceilings
The LED-8132M40CD belongs to Light Efficient Design's 8130 / 8132 / 8136 screw-in high bay retrofit family, available in 90W, 135W and 150W models replacing up to 400W HID. This 135W version uses a fanless design — no moving parts to clog with dust or fail in a hot ceiling — and dynamic temperature control that manages heat to support a longer, brighter life. Its driver is USA designed and specified, potted for protection against vibration and moisture, and burnt in three times before shipping. The lamp measures 10.0" tall by 8.7" wide, so it drops neatly into standard round high bay reflectors without fouling the housing.

Light quality that changes how a space feels
At 4000K, this lamp gives a neutral white that sits between the yellow cast of old metal halide and the cooler 5000K look. It's easy on the eyes over a full shift, renders safety markings and colour-coded parts accurately thanks to 80+ CRI, and unlike HID it reaches full output instantly — no five-minute warm-up, no restrike delay after a power blip. Output holds at 18 600 lumens for a 50 000-hour L70 rated life, so maintenance trips with a scissor lift become a rare event instead of an annual ritual.

Installation and compatibility
Installation is straightforward: cut power, remove the existing HID lamp, bypass or remove the old ballast as required, and thread the retrofit into the EX39 mogul socket. Because this is a "D" model, run a wired 0-10V dimming circuit to the lamp if you want continuous dimming to 20% or want to drive it from an occupancy sensor powered by the built-in 12V auxiliary output — a smart combo for aisles and storage bays that sit empty most of the day. Remember that this lamp is approved for open fixtures only: reflectors with no lens or glass enclosure. It is engineered to work in damp environments and is protected against insects and dust, and the 10kA surge protection is welcome on industrial feeders that see motor loads and switching spikes. Work must respect the Canadian Electrical Code and local rules.

Where it earns its keep, and the rest of the family
Warehouses, distribution docks, machine shops, municipal and transit garages, arenas, agricultural buildings and retail stockrooms all benefit: instant-on light, quiet operation and a big drop in connected load compared with a 400W HID system that also burned ballast watts. Within the same family you can mix outputs to suit ceiling heights — the 90W high bay retrofit replacing 250W HID for lower bays, the 150W 4000K high bay retrofit for taller ones, or the 135W 5000K version if you prefer a crisper white. For exterior areas, the same brand offers shoe box and wall pack retrofits such as the 110W shoe box / wall pack retrofit.
