A high-output 8-foot LED linear strip light with a built-in microwave sensor, designed for garages, warehouses, and commercial utility spaces where energy efficiency and hands-free operation matter.
The Nuvo Satco 65-1703 delivers up to 10,800 lumens of selectable white light (3500K-5000K) in a slim, white-finished housing. Its integrated microwave sensor automatically turns the light on when motion is detected and off after a set delay, reducing energy waste. The flicker-free driver and 0-10V dimming capability make it suitable for task areas that need consistent, adjustable illumination.
Best for
- Garages and workshops where hands-free motion-activated lighting improves convenience and safety
- Warehouses and storage areas needing bright, uniform overhead light across long aisles
- Basements and utility rooms with damp-location requirements
- Commercial or retail spaces requiring energy-efficient linear lighting with CCT tuning
- Parking garages and covered loading docks where motion sensing reduces electricity costs
Not ideal for
- Residential living rooms or bedrooms - the industrial design and high lumen output are better suited to utility spaces
- Outdoor uncovered areas - rated for damp locations only, not wet locations
- Spaces with ceilings under 8 ft - the 96-inch length may overwhelm smaller rooms
How bright is it?
10,400 to 10,800 lumens - roughly equivalent to a 600W incandescent or eight 60W bulbs. This is very bright, suitable for illuminating large areas like two-car garages or warehouse aisles. For comparison, a typical garage needs about 50 lumens per square foot; this fixture alone can cover a 200 sq ft area at that level.
Light color and feel
Selectable CCT allows you to choose 3500K (warm white, similar to halogen), 4000K (neutral white, crisp and clean), or 5000K (daylight, bright and energizing). The flicker-free driver ensures no visible flicker, reducing eye strain during prolonged tasks. 0-10V dimming lets you adjust brightness from 10% to 100%.
Sizing and fit
The fixture measures 96 inches long, 2.95 inches wide, and 3.27 inches high. It can be surface mounted, suspended, or recessed depending on your installation needs. The slim profile fits into standard T-grid ceilings or can be mounted directly to joists.

Frequently asked
Is the bulb included? Yes, the fixture has integrated LEDs that last up to 50,000 hours.
Is it dimmable, and what dimmer should I use? Yes, it is 0-10V dimmable. Use a compatible 0-10V dimmer (not a standard phase-cut dimmer).
Can I install this in a bathroom or outdoors? It is rated for damp locations, so it can be used in covered outdoor areas or bathrooms, but not in direct rain or wet locations.
What's the warranty? 5-year limited warranty on the fixture.
How does the microwave sensor work? The sensor detects motion within its range and automatically turns the light on. After a set time with no motion, it turns off to save energy.
