Re: Workshop: LED replacements for flourescent tubes.
I've changed the lighting in the house cellar where I do all my mechanical work and woodwork, previously I had three 4' fluorescents fitted with newish Osram Tri Phosphor tubes, but they took at least two to three minutes after switching on to stabilise and even then the light quality left a lot to be desired, I removed them and fitted two 10W LED floodlights above my lathe and two more over the workbench, on the ceiling but close to the walls because of the lack of height I have fitted five batten lampholders spaced around the room with 7W LED GLS bulbs, the transformation in light quality is amazing, when switching on the whole of the cellar is lit up almost instantaneously with 'day light', it makes working down there so much easier and pleasurable.
