Please consider the newer LED lights. We put the flush mount in the basement rooms, box type in the garage and led ceiling tile fixture in the drop ceiling. They cost a bit more than regular bulb or fluorescent lighting but I feel that they’re substantially brighter and you’re not going have to worry about changing a bulb for a long time. -

If that's indoors, try shopping for LED lighting panels... they're nearly Flat (about 1/2" thick!) and about 1 square foot as a minimum.But choose lighting Temperature carefully... it affects the color of the light. -

What does lighting temperature mean? Also, I have a ceiling fan ,&a ten foot ceiling. When you use the light on it, it feels like aninterigation room. Any suggestion for bulbs to help with this? Thanks. Love this sight.- See 1 previous

An incandescent bulb is closest to 2700 degK, fluorescent is dependent (cool or warm white, or daylight... to me all rediculous non-desciptions!)LEDs come commonly labelled as 2700, 3000, 4000, and 5000 degree... higher numbers look more blue or similar to industrial fluorescents.What you choose depends on the space it's in... outdoors look best with 2700, as do most residential interiors. I use higher temps for closets, the garage and hallways. But I can use lower wattage there, too. -
