Built for the realities of a parking garageParking structures are hard on lighting: vibration from traffic overhead, damp air, road salt season, dust and insects finding their way into every enclosed lens. The LED-8057M50CD-A was engineered around that. Its driver is pretested and potted, so it is protected against vibration and moisture, and the housing is insect and dust resistant. The lamp is rated for enclosed fixtures and damp location, which means you can reuse the existing gasketed low bay or garage fixture instead of replacing it. Active cooling keeps thermals in check, and the lamp operates from -40°F to 122°F — an important detail for unheated parkades and covered lots across the country.
Light quality that people and cameras noticeWith 9236 lumens at 5000K and 80+ CRI, this
HID replacement lamp gives a clean daylight-white wash that reads as bright and safe in spaces with no natural light. The angled LED panels create a 120° light distribution that pushes light down and outward across drive aisles and stalls rather than trapping it in the fixture bowl. Uniform, flicker-conscious LED illumination also helps surveillance systems capture usable footage of plates and faces, a real concern for property managers and condo boards.

Installation and electrical notesThe EX39 mogul base screws into the same socket your metal halide or high-pressure sodium lamp used, which keeps labour short and ladders off the floor faster. Because the lamp accepts 120-277V and also works on 347V, one part number covers multi-site portfolios running 120V, 208V, 240V, 277V or Canadian 347V service. For dimming or occupancy control, run a 0-10V circuit to the lamp: it dims continuously down to 20%, and the built-in 12V auxiliary output can power a sensor — ideal for garages where you want full light on approach and reduced output overnight. Existing ballast handling must follow the manufacturer's instructions on the spec sheet and your local electrical code; have a licensed electrician confirm the configuration.
Applications, companions and documentationThink underground condo parkades, hospital and university garages, municipal and airport lots, covered loading docks, warehouse low bays and equipment rooms with low ceilings. For fixtures that only need 175W HID equivalence, the
45W EX39 5000K retrofit and the
45W E26 5000K retrofit share the same family and finish the job with a consistent look; outdoors, the
80W shoe box and wall pack retrofit covers the entrance ramp and surface parking. The full technical PDF for the LED 8056 / 8057 series is in the Documentation tab with the complete ordering table, dimensions drawing and DLC codes.
