LED Shop Light for Garages, Work Areas and Shops - 1 Pack - 3600 Lumen / 4000K Cool White, 4 Foot, Plug-in (Surface/Suspended Mount Compatible) Not Linkable

I have ordered a few of these now.Update below: The light is great. Even though FedEx broke the package and light in half (the driver handed it to me bent in half "like oh well". To my amazement it still works (I was curious). The inner glass tube is broken, but the light still works. It has a glass tube inside of a plastic diffuser, then the LED strip is ran inside of that, very even light.Now to try to mount the bent light to the ceiling. Good thing they included the 6" steel drop wires...Update: I talked to Luceco, they replaced the light. They extra paded the replacement too. When I watch the FedEx guys they throw stuff from across my yard to the front door (as they do at a lot of places). I guess that is what happens when you get paid by the piece.These lights are amazing. I have ordered a few more. I have 3 of them in a two car garage, it's brighter than the daylight outside. I can't talk enough about these lights. I would put them in every room in the house if I could.I'm thinking about seeing if these will fit into the waterproof housings to use outside. Let my neighbors complain about the bright lights shining into their windows at night... I'll add some more. Insert Evil laugh.In all seriousness, these lights are much better than the Home Depot $40 LED fixture they sell. Get this one. It's worth the shipping wait.The colors are great, not cheap LEDs. Easy to install. Like others have said, the switch could be in a different place, but I have mine running from a switched outlet box on the ceiling. So that's not an issue.

I have two existing T12, 4 ft, 2-bulb fluorescent fixtures in my garage/workshop and wanted more light, so I bought two of these. I specifically wanted the flush mount option. These are extremely easy to install: put two sheetrock screws in ceiling (because that's why I had), slip on, peg in place with tiny nail, plug in, done. It's also nice that they weigh what feels light mere ounces; in any case much, much lighter than a metal housing and ballast. They're much brighter than my existing fluorescents, don't flicker when cold, so far so good.Well, I went back to Amazon to buy two more and they're out of stock, so I found them somewhere else and ordered them, which resulted in them being drop shipped directly from Luceco in Houston, TX. Not Prime speed but less expensive, as it turned out.Step 3, to do: Luceco has bulbs that one can put in existing fluorescent fixtures (rewiring required: bypass or remove the nasty ballast) that are the same brightness as these (18W), or 33% brighter (24W). With the latter these fixtures will be TWICE AS BRIGHT as before. Because I cover the workshop windows in winter, together these will give me truly enviable work lighting 24/7/365.

I've only bought and hung one in my garage so far. I could tell that I'll be replacing the other 5 fluorescents soon. This seems brighter and whiter than the fluorescents. I have no idea how long these will last. Seems to me that the claims on all led bulbs are marketing. I'm saying that about all leds, not just this one. I still have made the switch and think it's worth it in electric savings alone. After I replace the rest in my garage I'll be in business.Pros:Very easy to hang.Light weight.Instant on.No flickering.3600 lumen whiter light that fluorescents. Seems brighter.Will be easier to clean off when needed.Switch is nice but not needed when hanging in a switch wired garage.No shield over these like some so it even lights up the ceiling. More light if you have reflective foam insulation for ceiling like me.Cons:I don't have any to report. If it happens to stop working I'll update then.

I went for these LED shop lights because they were inexpensive but got decent reviews. I wanted them for my garage. The garage already has florescent lighting (which I’ve long since converted to LEDs, but that’s another review) but has lighting at the entrance side. The garage door opener (GDO) does have a light, but it’s yellowed and pathetically feeble. So I bought two of these LED units to add some light at that dim end of the garage.The units are very light weight and have minimal structure, as in they have almost no structure at all. There’s no frame, the LED tubes themselves provide the structure. If these are to be placed where they might take some abuse, or get hit by a basketball or something, forget it, you need more robust lighting. However, mounted to my garage ceiling, these will do just fine.For surface mounting they come with basic plastic drywall inserts and screws. Normally I wouldn’t like to hang something overhead without at least screwing into a joist, but these lights are so darn light weight that the mounting hardware is more than adequate. There is no template for drilling holes, so you’ll need to take care with measuring and drilling.For suspension mounting they also come with some cute little wire hangers that slip into the keyhole slots on the units. You’d then have to hang the other ends on hooks you provide. I surface mounted mine.The lights are quite bright, about what you’d expect from a florescent shop light, but with better color. The color is described as Cool White, and I’d say that was accurate. It’s very white, but not at all bluish. It’s not a pretty color for inside a house, but for a shop or garage it’s perfect.To power the units in my garage, I screwed a two outlet socket adapter into the light socket in the GDO. That gave me two plugs for two LED shop lights. See the pictures for how I did it. There was even enough room available in the GDO to still install an LED light bulb inside. Now when my garage door opens, there is a ton of light, right where you need it: at the butt end of the SUV for unloading groceries. I can also turn them on from the switch at the other end of the garage.I deducted one star just because everything feels so fragile, but these actually work perfectly for what I intended, so I'd give it another 1/2 star if I could.
