Workshop lighting

[stomper666]

Hello

Anyone have LED based workshop lighting as opposed to the more common 5’ fluorescent tubes.  Looking on YouTube at examples ... looks like a way brighter light.  Fluro light always seems to be not quite bright enough, and colours look slightly different in it, even with the right combination of warm and cold tubes.

I’m considering swapping over but thought I’d ask.  

Cheers

PS this is in a garage so I’m thinking more than just say a small workbench area

I replaced the flourescent strip light in my kitchen with one of these:-

I'm well impressed, much brighter whiter light with fewer shadows

Hi Dave

 

thanks ... will check it out.  Fed up of flickering lights and blown cartridges.  Must have spent a fortune over the years.  I also build radio control models and trying to spray paint gloss finishes  with a mini gun by fluro is very challenging.

 

cheers
