I bought one of these
4' LED shop lights for my shop recently and I love it. Because it's a dedicated LED fixture it is super lightweight and could easily be attached to a structure with zipties. There is also no glass to break and it's super bright.
When I joined my team we had dark navy blue curtains surrounding 3 sides of our pit and it made things impossible to work in. Even though the top was uncovered it cut out a huge amount of light and made the space feel much more cramped than necessary. I strongly recommend open minimalist pit structures as they are not only easier to work in but create a more inviting presence for other teams.
