John: I=E2=80=99m late to this topic, but I have info that might help =
you=E2=80=A6 I too was struggling to get more light in the garage when =
the garage door opened.=20
=20
After considering a lot of options, I went with a solution that is cheap =
and effective! I replaced the florescent bulb in the opener with an LED =
light strip that I mounted to the ceiling. Now, when the door opens I =
get a 16 ft long bright LED strip of light instead of the single bulb. =
It=E2=80=99s very bright, and if you need, you can daisy-chain multiples =
together.
=20
It looks like it is currently $16.99 on Amazon. You will also need a =
socket adapter so you can plug it into the light bulb socket. I think =
mine cost me about $3.00. following is the link to the LEDs on Amazon: =

Subject: [Shop-talk] adding to a 4-way switch circuit.
=20
I have 4- 8=E2=80=99 fluorescent fixtures in my garage that are =
controlled from three different doors. I=E2=80=99d like to be able to =
do some circuit changes
so when I actuate the garage door opener it would also turn on these =
lights instead of the puny light in the unit. It seems something might
be able to work using the light circuit in the opener but my head =
won=E2=80=99t wrap around a 4-way circuit and the =
relay/switch/hicky-thing in the opener !
=20
any suggestions
=20
thanks
john
