    LED bulbs

    I'm working on a project where I''ll be removing the 2 halogen light fixtures from my Craftsman work light, & attaching 2 porch light sockets with LED flood lamp bulbs like the one below. I'll be going with 5000k color. The bulbs are available in different wattages, & my question is which watt bulb should I go with? For a work light that'll just be 2 or 3 feet behind me is 120W too bright?

    Depends. If it is 120W equivalent it would be ok. If it is a actual 120W led that will be blinding!

    There have been a couple of threads about this, with lots of good info from Dr. Pain and Zach McG.

    Do a search and you'll see the current bulb recommendation.
