    You will find that if you paint your whole garage in semi-gloss white or gloss white your garage will be brighter.,it would also protect the sheetrock and joint taping . It also prevents, to a great degree, the walls absorbing oders . The tan sheetrock absorbs light , white semigloss or gloss refects light . When I bought my first house a long time ago ,a friend taught me this when he brought his light testing equipment. We now have 4ft led shop lights spaced around the ceiling and over the work benches . We meet a number of times especially at Jacktown spring meet ,except for 24 ,I am on my red mobility scooter in you videos . Please keep up the great videos as I have learned alot and recommend you channel to other people.

      All valid points William, but I still have no plans to paint the garage. I hope you can make it to Jacktown this spring - ScoutCrafter's meetup is gonna be epic!

    This may help you understand the issues with LED lights. The LED lights have a converter that converts 110vac to a DC voltage. The converter gets hot and the vents let air pass and remove heat. The lights I have repaired had capacitors that failed due to heat and the liquid leaks out due to the seal failure. I replaced the capacitors with higher temperature ones but in a few years they failed again. The next thing I was going to do was to use an external LED driver box and would recommend this if your lights fail. I went down a different path and found 2ft-3ft LED rectangle motion detection lights that daisy chain . The price is 4 lights for $13. I installed an adapter that converts a light bulb socket to 110v outlet and plugged in the lights. The lights connect in a daisy chain. The lights run much cooler and they are 2 years old now.
    For the house lighting, I found on sale on USA made LED bulbs at Walmart closeout area years ago. The price was still double the price of the China bulbs . I bought the bulbs and they are still working. They run hot so I took one apart to see why. They have capacitors that are not like the ones with liquid in them that fail with heat.
    You can buy screw in motion detectors for your light if you want your lights to turn on when you drive into your garage or walk into the garage.

    What an improvement. You could have more light in the garage if we had a painting party so all the walls were white or a light color for full reflectivity.
    I changed my two 100-watt bulbs with two five-panel leds like yours. Big difference!

    Number 1, NOBODY has that clean of a garage! Bravo! Number 2., I had installed about 8 of the led strips in my garage which I am very pleased with, but I decided to put up 2 of those your showing in some places that I really want more lighting. I have not talked to anyone that has tried these bulbs who was disappointed. Great video!

    • @357magdad
      @357magdad  10 дней назад

      We are committed to parking 2 cars in the garage, so we have to keep it tidy. These lights would be ideal if you already have the screw in sockets in the ceiling.

  • @yadda_tools
    @yadda_tools 10 дней назад

    I purchased the six panel lights. My garage has a low ceiling,but 5:05 I ha five lights allowing me to throw light into the corners better. You should consider adding over the door storage since you have that high ceiling.

    • @357magdad

      I have some high shelves on the wall that was behind me in the video.

  • @Bigfoot14000
    @Bigfoot14000 10 дней назад

    Looks like a significant improvement. Also a couple coats of inexpensive light tone paint over that browned drywall would really make a difference. I've done that in several homes I've owned.

    Good video Magdad! I have several of these style bulbs/lights that I use in my shop, my cellar and attic. The difference is just amazing. Thanks for sharing. I know you know this, but if you paint those walls with primer or white it will be even brighter, but who has time paint, we have tools to restore! 🤣

    I'd say that was a good purchase, i fitted an LED strip in my shed and its great, the only downside is the shadows, need a smaller, or adjustable, one as well. Im getting a bit of envy looking at that nice sized garage!

  • @lv_woodturner3899
    @lv_woodturner3899 10 дней назад

    Interesting lights. They do make a BIG difference. I personally like 6000K lights, for me the white light is better for working.
    Now if only BigClive had these, he could assess if they are being overdriven.
    I have so many LED bulbs with packaging stating e.g., 10,000 hrs, but which last less than 100 hours. Normally some component like a capacitor fails, or some of the LED's fail because they are being overdriven.
    A good improvement for your garage.
    Dave.

    • @357magdad
      @357magdad  10 дней назад

      I hope they last a while. The incandescent bulbs were up there for at least 10 years.

  • @ivanstiles7030
    @ivanstiles7030 10 дней назад

    I use those style bulbs in my garage and i even bought my brother in law a set for his garage and he loves them. I've been using these for about 4 years now and I've had to replace once. The brand i bought from Ollies seems to last about 2-3 years and the the amount of light they produce is far superior to any other bulb i have ever tried in my shop.

    • @357magdad
      @357magdad  10 дней назад +1

      The old fashioned incandescent bulbs I replaced were up there for at least 10 years. I don't think the new LED lights are gonna make it that long.

    • @ivanstiles7030
      @ivanstiles7030 10 дней назад

      @357magdad my first set didn't make it as long but they were definitely better than the incandescent buls.

    I use lights like these in my garage and attic. And I love them !!! Are those snow shovels ???!!! I've never owned or held one of those !!! One final question..... Why don't builders finish out garages, in some parts of the country ? My garage walls are finished and painted, as nicely as my interior walls.

    • @357magdad
      @357magdad  10 дней назад +1

      I'm glad they're working for you Steve! I would have been nice if the builder painted the garage when the condo was built in 1989.

  • @Happyfacehotwheels
    @Happyfacehotwheels 10 дней назад

    My brother in law tried that style in his garage, and they lasted about a month. I'm not sure about the brand, but it came from Amazon. I'm going to rewire his garage and add more lightning and receptacles as it needs it.
