Has anyone every performed a retrofit in a factory where the lights are to be motion sensored. The lighting now are T-12 and the customer want to go with a T-8 or T-5 retrofit and I want to suggest additional energy saving with motion sensing but I dont know how to go about it. Do the lights come with built in sensors or do they need to be installed independent of the fixture? Also, which are the best types of ballast to use for longevity? Without actually looking at the project is there a way to gather a round about price difference in making the switch. Basically does anyone know the rough percentage one would save going from T-12 to T-8 or even to T-5. Thanks for any help .
