Light fixture with multiple outputs
A light fixture includes a housing having an upper wall, a first side wall, and a second side wall at least partially defining an interior and a bottom opening. A mounting tray is positioned in the interior and releasably connected to the housing. A first light emitter is connected to the mounting tray and has a first light output. A second light emitter is connected to the mounting tray and has a second light output. A third light emitter is connected to the mounting tray and has a third light output. A lens is connected to the housing. The light fixture can be optionally connected to a secondary light fixture and used to control light outputs from both fixtures.
