| Would this be good for lighting?
Craftsman 52 watt Fluorescent Work Light - Model 83897 at Sears.com
I've been looking at this light. I need something that won't run hot, and also an efficient light that will help me see the paint defects and the polish break down stages. Would these be efficient for my needs?
