Default Re: Workshop: LED replacements for flourescent tubes.

I'm in agreement too. My workshop is lit by 6' daylight flories using electronic starters which were installed in 2002, I bought a small stock of replacement tubes at the time but have not had to replace one yet.

The available forms of LED lighting seem to be too 'focused' to allow decent all-round lighting of work areas, they are probably best restricted to replacement of spots or down lighters in local areas.

I like to be able to work/read/draw anywhere in my workshop space without the encumbance of portable 'desk light' illumination or resorting to using a torch. However I guess the ecology brigade might have a fit!
