Lithonia 2BLT4 LED Strip Light
Our 2BLT4 LED strip light delivers reliable, energy-efficient illumination for workspaces, garages, retail environments, and residential applications. Designed with a durable steel housing and an advanced LED array, this fixture provides consistent brightness while reducing energy consumption by up to 60% compared to traditional fluorescent strip lighting.
We engineered the lithonia lighting 2blt4 for easy installation with multiple mounting options and a plug-and-play design. The integrated LED modules eliminate lamp replacement costs and deliver up to 50,000 hours of maintenance-free operation, making this fixture an ideal choice for high-traffic areas and hard-to-reach locations.
- 4-foot LED strip light with integrated driver for simplified installation
- Delivers 3,500 lumens of bright, uniform illumination at 4000K color temperature
- Energy-efficient design consumes only 40 watts while replacing 80-watt fluorescent fixtures
- Durable powder-coated steel housing resists corrosion in demanding environments
- Rated for up to 50,000 hours of operation with minimal lumen depreciation
Construction & Housing Materials
We build the 2BLT4 with a heavy-gauge steel housing that provides structural integrity and heat dissipation for the LED components. The powder-coated finish protects against moisture, dust, and corrosion in garages, warehouses, and industrial settings where durability matters most.
The impact-resistant polycarbonate lens diffuses light evenly across the entire 4-foot length while protecting the LED array from accidental contact. This lens design minimizes glare and hot spots, creating comfortable illumination for extended work sessions. The integrated heat sink extends LED lifespan by maintaining optimal operating temperatures even in enclosed spaces.
Installation Methods & Compatibility
Surface Mount Installation
Our lithonia lighting 2blt4 ships with integrated mounting brackets that allow direct attachment to ceilings or walls using standard hardware. The pre-drilled keyhole slots accept screws on 16-inch or 24-inch stud spacing, and the low-profile design sits just 2.5 inches from the mounting surface.
Suspended & Chain Mount
For drop ceiling applications or areas requiring adjustable height, the fixture includes suspension holes compatible with standard S-hooks and lightweight chain. This method works well in retail spaces or workshops where ceiling-mounted installations provide better coverage.
Light Output & Energy Performance
The 2BLT4 produces 3,500 lumens at a neutral 4000K color temperature that balances visibility with color accuracy. This output replaces traditional two-lamp T8 fluorescent fixtures while consuming half the wattage, translating to significant energy savings in spaces with multiple fixtures or extended operating hours.
We rate the lithonia lighting 2blt4 at L70 for 50,000 hours, meaning the LEDs will maintain at least 70% of their initial brightness after five years of continuous operation. This extended lifespan eliminates the recurring costs and maintenance disruptions associated with lamp replacement in commercial facilities.

Questions About the 2BLT4 LED Strip Light
Yes, the mounting brackets accommodate installation on surfaces up to 30 degrees from horizontal. For steeper angles, we recommend using the suspension mounting method with adjustable chain or aircraft cable to maintain the fixture in a level position.
The integrated mounting slots provide flexibility for non-standard installations, though optimal light distribution occurs when the fixture is mounted parallel to the work surface below.
You can link up to 10 fixtures on a single 15-amp circuit, or up to 8 units on a 20-amp circuit, based on the 40-watt draw per fixture. The male and female connectors on each unit allow daisy-chain installation without additional wiring between fixtures.
For longer runs exceeding these limits, we recommend separating the installation into multiple circuits or using junction boxes to create independent strings. Always verify your electrical capacity with local codes before installing multiple fixtures.
The lithonia lighting 2blt4 uses integrated LED technology that eliminates ballasts and lamps entirely, reducing maintenance costs and energy consumption by approximately 50-60% compared to equivalent fluorescent fixtures. LEDs also provide instant-on operation without the warm-up period or flickering common in fluorescent lighting.
The 50,000-hour lifespan of the 2BLT4 significantly exceeds the 15,000-20,000 hour typical life of fluorescent tubes, and the solid-state construction is more durable in temperature extremes and vibration-prone environments.
The 2BLT4 carries a dry location rating and is designed for indoor use in standard environmental conditions. For damp locations such as covered porches, unheated garages, or areas with occasional moisture exposure, we recommend our FMVL vapor-tight series fixtures.
The powder-coated steel housing provides corrosion resistance for typical indoor humidity levels, but direct water exposure or continuous high-humidity environments require fixtures with sealed enclosures and appropriate IP ratings.
This model is not dimmable and operates at full brightness when powered. For applications requiring dimming capability, we offer our 2BLTDIM series which includes 0-10V dimming compatibility for integration with commercial lighting control systems.
The non-dimmable design of the standard 2BLT4 reduces complexity and cost while providing reliable on-off operation suitable for most garage, workshop, and utility lighting applications.
We provide a 5-year limited warranty covering defects in materials, workmanship, and LED performance when the fixture is installed and operated according to specifications. This includes both the LED array and the integrated driver, with replacement or repair at our discretion.
Warranty registration through our website extends your coverage and provides access to technical support for installation questions. The warranty excludes damage from improper installation, electrical surges, or modifications to the original fixture configuration.
Yes, the 6-foot power cord can be cut and the wires connected directly to a junction box for permanent hardwired installation. The fixture uses standard 18AWG wiring with black (hot), white (neutral), and green (ground) conductors clearly marked for proper connection.
Hardwiring eliminates the need for an accessible outlet and provides a cleaner installation appearance. We recommend having this work performed by a licensed electrician to ensure compliance with local electrical codes and maintain warranty coverage.
