TCP vs EDIPAI vs JEE vs Gielight vs StarLake LED High Bays: Which to Buy

JEE J-LHB09-220WBML1A2 LED linear high bay

There is no single best LED high bay brand. The right one depends on ceiling height, layout, controls and budget. This guide compares the five high bay lines we sell, TCP, EDIPAI, JEE Lighting, Gielight and StarLake, using what is actually in our catalog, so you can pick by job instead of by logo.

The five lines at a glance

Counts and starting prices below are from our catalog as of October 2026. Prices change, so check the product page for today's number.

Brand High bays carried Starting price Styles Best fit
TCP 36 $66.00 Linear and UFO Jobs that want a large, long established US brand and a deep range of options
EDIPAI 21 $49.25 Mostly linear Big warehouses needing high wattage, sensor bases and selectable output
JEE Lighting 19 $36.00 Linear and UFO Budget conscious retrofits where price per fixture matters most
Gielight 14 $41.75 UFO and linear Open floors and gyms, with UFO options up to high wattage
StarLake 23 $25.75 Linear and UFO Jobs that want field selectable wattage and color, sensor bases and 277-480V versions, from 100W up to 500W

Step 1: pick the style before the brand

Linear high bays spread light along a long axis, which suits racked aisles and long rows. UFO high bays push light down in a round pattern, which suits open floors, gyms and shops. Decide this first. Our UFO vs linear guide covers it in detail.

Step 2: size the wattage to the ceiling

As a starting point, 100 to 150W replaces a 400W metal halide, and 240 to 320W replaces a 1000W. Taller ceilings and higher foot candle targets push you up the range. Use the layout calculator or the warehouse sizing guide to get a count.

Step 3: match the brand to the job

TCP

Our deepest high bay line, with both linear and UFO bodies and many sensor ready options. A good default when the customer or spec asks for a well known brand. Shop TCP.

EDIPAI

Mostly linear high bays reaching into the higher wattages, and almost every model in our catalog lists a sensor base option. A strong choice for large warehouses where occupancy controls are part of the plan. Shop EDIPAI.

JEE Lighting

One of the lowest starting prices in our catalog, second only to StarLake, with linear and UFO options. Worth pricing first on retrofits where the budget is tight. Shop JEE Lighting.

Gielight

A good spread of UFO high bays alongside linear models, reaching into high wattages for tall open spaces. Shop Gielight.

StarLake

Linear high bays (LHB06 and LHB07) and UFO high bays (UFO07 and UFO12) from 100W up to 500W, with the lowest starting price of the five in our catalog. Most models let you select wattage in the field, the linear models select 3500K, 4000K or 5000K, and several ship with a sensor base. UFO12, LHB06 and LHB07 also come in 277-480V versions. Start with the LHB06 linear high bay 60-165W or the UFO07 100W UFO, or read our StarLake overview. Shop StarLake.

Quick answers

Which LED high bay brand is cheapest?

In our catalog, StarLake has the lowest starting price, at $25.75 for a 100W UFO, followed by JEE Lighting and Gielight. The cheapest fixture is not always the cheapest job, so compare wattage, lumens and controls too.

Which brand is best for a warehouse with motion sensors?

EDIPAI lists a sensor base option on nearly all of its high bays here, and TCP has many sensor ready models. StarLake offers sensor base versions of its UFO12 and LHB07 high bays.

Which high bays come in 277-480V versions?

In our catalog, StarLake lists 277-480V versions of its UFO12, LHB06 and LHB07 high bays. Check the voltage on each product page before you order.

Can I put two brands in one building?

Yes. Keep the same color temperature across the space so the light looks consistent.
