 Subject:  Best lighting for Painting/Working inList thread.  
  
 Date:  Oct 8, 2008
 From:  Blake Whitelaw 
I have moved into a new house and am finishing my basement. I have managed to scrape out a small 10X5 foot room/closet for a workbench area and seeing as the basement was unfinished I have total freedom to setup the lighting.

My question is, what do you think is the best type of lighting to work in, florescent, incandescent, LED or a mix? My initial thoughts are a bank of florescent tubes on the ceiling and then LED puck lights directly above the work bench (I plan on having shelving/cupboards above the work bench so they can be mounted about 24 inches above the work surface).

Thanks
Blake
