    Over at costco they have an led shop light that looks like this florescent but with super bright leds in it for $40. It's a plug in the wall socket kind but I just got a screw in adapter for my socket and did it that way. I'll be buying another to put on my back wall for even more light coverage.

    I helped install it. It has what looks like 2 48" long T5 or T8 bulbs, but the bulbs are actually white plastic tubes with LED strips ran through them.

    Question - I thought LED were going to use less power these are speced out at 38 Watts.

    They do look pretty sweet!

    To be honest I didn't care. I just had a regular bulb for a garage light.

    The fixture mimics 2 32w bulbs, so there is a 26w power savings.

    I saw those, looks like a lot of ppl were buying them. How bright are they compared to the usual florescent tubes you find in most garages? The original tubes in my garage lasted about 4 years which isn't bad but I'd swap them if the LED are a lot brighter.

    I like'em! LED's are instant on too. Don't have to wait for them to warm up like florescent's.

    They are way brighter than the tubes. It would be a good upgrade.
