This is a picture of the box:
When you unbox it you get to see just what you bought:
So not something that I would normally have thought to buy but it was about $20 and the center light in my garage doesn't provide much light with all the stuff I have in there casting a lot of shadows. I do have a lot of light but then that is turning on a lot of bulbs when I don't always need or want all that brightness.

So did it help?

This first picture is with the old bulb:
Then with this new device:
I had the camera set on manual so both photos are as close to being the same as I could get. The tilt is set so it spreads the light some which is pretty much what I was hoping for. I can tilt it flat and have more concentrated light at that spot if I need it sometimes.

So not your dads 60W bulb. This is going to work fine, doing what I hoped it would.

I got mine at Menard's but I'm sure they sell them other places as well and maybe even at a better price.

4000L is alot for the space.


One thing you need to be careful of with the LED bulbs is flicker. On some cheaper versions where the driver isn't great-you will get the wagon wheel effect on movement.

The other - with 3 sources like that- you might end up with multiple shadows on objects- not a deal breaker- but for the persnickety it may be
annoying.
