    1. SANSI 27W Omni-directional Ceramic LED Light Bulbs, 4000 Lumens, 5000K Daylight, Non-Dimmable, 5-Year warranty, $24.99: amzn.to/36qMXxO
    Lux Light Meter App Reading: 113 Avg - 278 Max
    These LED lights have a slight power-on delay that could be annoying to some users. Since these are a lower watt light, we recommend these for areas that have more fixtures. We have 12 of these lights in our 30' x 32' show and the lighting is amazing. We have had these for over a year without any issues. The 5000K color temperature is perfect for working on cars and wiring as the colors show perfectly.
    2. 60W Deformable LED Garage Light, 6000 Lumens, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, 2-Year warranty, $28.95: amzn.to/2uD9xG6
    Lux Light Meter App Reading: 252 Avg - 734 Max
    These LED lights have a slight power-on delay that could be annoying to some users. There is a good amount of light coming from the fixture with a slight amount of glare when you look right at the bulb. The light seems a bit bluer and that is explained by the color temperature rating of 6000K.
    3. SANSI 60W Deformable LED Garage Light, 6000 Lumens, 5000K Daylight, Non-Dimmable, 5-Year warranty, $44.99: amzn.to/2thM3WH
    Lux Light Meter App Reading: 456 Avg - 1301 Max
    These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light. They are made out of plastic, but the design does allow the heat from the LED pods to escape upward. Light dissipation is amazing and we have been more than thrilled with these lights in both of our smaller garages for the last two months. Glare is not minimal with this style of light due to the design. They are on the pricier side, but worth the cost.
    4. 60w Deformable LED Garage Light, 6000 Lumen, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, 3-Year warranty, $29.99: amzn.to/2U2OVls
    Lux Light Meter App Reading: 266 Avg - 703 Max
    These LED lights have a slight power-on delay that could be annoying to some users. They light up the room well in a brighter light that does not seem as blue as some other 6000K models. There is a slight amount of glare when you look right at the bulb.
    5. 60W Deformable LED Garage Ceiling Lights, 6000 Lumen, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, "Lifetime Service", $17.95: amzn.to/36uoWWD
    Lux Light Meter App Reading: 231 Avg - 662 Max
    These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light. Out of all the lights we have gone over, if you are sensitive to any bright light or have low ceilings like in a basement, these are the light for you. They are not as bright as other lights, but you can look right at them and see the light fixture in its entirety. It comes with a stem to lower the bulb from the ceiling to keep the wings up a bit.
    6. 60W Deformable LED Garage Lights, 6000 Lumens, 6500K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, No warranty Listed, $26.95: amzn.to/38JZnCC
    Lux Light Meter App Reading: 244 Avg - 816 Max
    These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light. Because of the light coming from 3 smaller areas, there is a slight amount of glare when you look at them. For a metal wing light, these are the best performers in a 60-watt class.
    7. 80W Deformable LED Garage Lights, 8000 Lumens, 6000-6500K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, 2-Year warranty, $37.99: amzn.to/37uDLty
    Lux Light Meter App Reading: 303 Avg - 940 Max
    These LED lights do have a very slight power-on delay and most would feel they respond very close to a normal light bulb. Out of the ones with a delay, this one is the least noticeable. As we moved up in testing, it was clear that our wattage bumped up.
    8. 100W Deformable LED Garage Lights, 10000 Lumens, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, No warranty Listed, $39.99: amzn.to/3aIOxhP
    Lux Light Meter App Reading: 435 Avg - 1322 Max
    These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light. There is more light than the light we list just above this one in the 80-watt form. The 6000K color temperature is not bad and does not feel blue.
    9. 120W Deformable LED Garage Lights, 12000 Lumens, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, No warranty Listed, $36.95: amzn.to/38K1E0C
    Lux Light Meter App Reading: 418 Avg - 1394 Max
    These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light. By far, this light outperformed the other lights as one would expect from the wattage. But it did not outperform our #3 light above by that much for the extra wattage used. This light is less expensive to purchase than the #3 above and really did an excellent job of lighting up the area around the light.

    Thank you this was a great review! I just wanted to add my experience.... I purchased 4 of the $17.00 white plastic deform-able 60W LEDs from Amazon 6 months ago and have been using them in the garage. When I first bought them, one of the lights did not work well and was dim. I contacted the seller and they provided pre-paid return postage and I received a replacement light in 2 days, before I even sent the old one back. I have been very satisfied for the cost and bought 2 more.

    Commented awhile ago, and decided to add some further info. I took your recommendation and purchased a pair of the SANSI (#3) and the one unit I immediately used, is still rocking! During this period, the #9 lamp you demo, the type I first purchased four of from Amazon, including the 4 replacements GHUSTAR replaced, have finally COMPLETELY failed. Oct 11 2020 was the first day I installed the first 4, Oct 12, the first of 4 failed. Nov. 4, '20 was the 2nd dead. As of March 17, '21, every single one died, and GHUSTAR is not honoring the lifetime warranty it appears. $36.95 x 4, plus four replacements, dead in under ONE YEARS 2-3hr/day use. Thanks for your excellent video, and especially for the #3 suggestion. I'll be replacing the temporary standard LED bulbs I'm using today with SANSI this time around.

    I own #7. I use two in my 32x28 garage with 12 foot white painted walls.They are bright and the movable fins allowed me to push light to the corners. They did have a plastic burning smell when they first started on day one. It went away and hasn’t returned. The power on delay is less than half a second on my tests. If I go out to garage with them on I often think the garage doors are open. They are that bright.

    I picked up some 20 dollar 4 ft led 5500 lumens from walmart for my garage it's about a 20×30 put plugs in the ceiling, those have come in handy working in there. Put 2 over my work bench and installed 6 total. I like alot of light removed 3 single 8 ft florescent and 5 4 ft double florescent lights. Hand them installed for a year so far I haven't had a single issue. I purchased one to test for about 6 months. Lighting is so much better and in the winter time I have no buzz or dealing with dim lights until they warm up. Helped wire a 60 x 60 building at church 19 foot ridge peak. Purchased some 10000 lumens high bay lights from rualking for 80 apiece per code 10 was all we needed ended up installing 24 of them been about a year no problems with them pushes light to the ground great. Name brand were 300 apiece.

    1 Well organized-- use of the smartphone app provided a consistent performance measure.
    2 It would help viewers to see a brand or model name on the screen title inset, so we easily can compare its video segment with the table on your website.
    3 Good analysis, especially with anticipated applications /environments.
    4 Mention of cost and warranty very helpful
    5 Especially liked your good control of audio for level and clarity, and the opening signature theme is exactly right.
    Surprisingly, many of the LED products reviewed do not have a warranty, despite their higher cost compared with standard fluorescents.
    We share your dislike of fluorescent bulbs, not only their occasional hum or buzz, but the fact they produce a significant amount of UV. radiation, which is not good for the eyes, long term. The UV-emitting overhead lighting in a big-box store damages product packaging colors-- most colors are faded.
    Fluorescents have ruled the environment of offices, factories and schools for more than 80 years, and it is certainly time to adopt new lighting technology-- particularly when LED light is better controlled for undesirable radiation and desirable color spectrum. All other factors equal, the energy/cost savings, alone, justify the switch.

    (advance post script. I went ahead and ordered a pair of the #3 units. I watched more closely, your vid, great information, far exceeds any I've been watching today)
    Looking for a good illumination and long lifetime. I have been using the #2 bulb since around Oct.10/20. At that time I purchased 4 units. One of the 'petals' died on the second day, less than an hour use. The remaining petals continued for about a week or so, beginning with a strobe/flicker, and after about a minute, the panel that was flashing first failed, and seconds later a flash and the entire thing was done. Amazon replaced it. Yesterday, January 21, while in garage for a couple hours, I saw a flickering, and one of the original purchased units began a flicker, and before I could get my phone to video it, it died. And an hour later, the entire thing failed. Just sent it back for replacement. DO you have longevity info about any of the others? I see that you reported #1 being good for a year. But I'm most interested in #3 and #8, and maybe #9, based on the images around 1:50. Brightest. Thx.

I am not looking for a garage light, but rather some additional kitchen light for my small apartment, which only has a single overhead light for the kitchen/living room. I think the Sansai 60 watt deformable will probably best serve my needs. I'll let you know how things work out. Again, thanks for taking the time to put together such an informative presentation :-)

    Found your video was a well balanced review. There are so many variations that it has become totally confusing. I am hoping you can give me some advice on what I really need. I've been looking to replace 6x4' fluorescent batten lights in the main part of the workshop and a single 5' with LED lighting for my workshop. I do woodturning, pen turning and smaller craft objects so I need a really good lighting situation that the fluorescent lights are not really achieving.
    Workshop Structure =Wood, 20'x15'x 8', 3 small windows on the front giving very little light. I use a number of wood preparation tools, planners, benchtop drill, over and under planner, scroll saw, bandsaws wood and metal, spindle sander and lathes. These are all situated around the outer inside walls, centre part is taken up with my workbench and Kity circular saw.
    I hope this isn't to much, I would appreciate any help you can give.

    It would have been great to actually measure the power consumed by the various lights tested. Just because it says 60 watts, doesn't mean that's what it really uses at the voltage you have. I would think the driver devices inside these units would handle differences in voltage that would not affect the net result of power used.

    I have watched your light review, great info. I am building a new home with a 24’ x 36’ garage with 9’ ceilings. The spec sheet calls for led tube lighting however I have had deformable lighting in my last garage and loved it. As a result they are instead installing 6 locations evenly spaced where I can install non-tube lights. I want the garage well lit (I have poor vision) but not over powering and would be interested in your thoughts. Ceiling and walls will be white or at least very light. PK

  • @robj2704
    @robj2704 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The benefit of most of these lights is the light is sent in a downward direction. A regular incandescent bulb sends light in all directions which means that any up light toward the ceiling is wasted unless you have a white ceiling which is highly reflective. Most of these fixtures are in the 6000 lumen range whereas a 100 watt light is slightly less at 5000 lumens. Since I have several light sockets in my basement ceiling it would be expensive to replace them all with these fixtures. I always turn off my basement lights when not needed so the life of my 100 watt bulbs is actually pretty good. And, a 100 watt incandescent bulb is pretty cheap. I can replace a lot of 100 watt incandescent bulbs before I exceed the price of each of these LED fixtures. Since I'm not limited by too few sockets I don't have a problem with an inadequate number of sockets and poor light distribution. I'm going to pass on this product.

    Hi! Thanks for the well-presented LED info. I am putting in a Pet Grooming Studio into our shop, where I require bright light, & shadows are to be avoided at all costs. I prefer not to have to do any additional wiring. The area is 11'W x 23'L x 12' H, & there is a 3' x 4' windows on either end, so lots of natural light.
    Currently there are 3 standard wall-mount fixtures which each hold 2 60 W bulbs. I am interested in the 2 plastic lights you reviewed. Can a wall-mount fixture support the weight of these lights? Would you be able to place 2 of them into one fixture? I have always used Fluorescent lighting in the past - how does LED compare? Which light do you recommend? Thanks for any info you can offer...

    Thanks for the very informative video! My garage has interior wall-to-wall measurements of approximately 23'-4" x 29'-4" and a 9'-4" ceiling height with 4 standard light sockets. I definitely prefer the quality of 5000K over the 6000-6500K. I use my garage as a woodworking shop so good bright light is important. Wondering which LED fixtures you would recommend? Thanks!

    • @WorkshopAddict

  • @cdrice999
    @cdrice999 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Really appreciate this review/comparison video! I need to "re-think" the lighting in my garage/workshop from the ground-up (err, ceiling-down?) - in the mean-time, a quick swap of the current single high-wattage fixture to one of these seems like an ideal compromise. I just ordered #3 and look forward to having it installed by the weekend. The current high-wattage compact florescent I've had mounted for years has always made me a little nervous (extreme heat), and I know it's pulling a lot more power than I should be using to light that area. Until I have time to revisit lighting the entire area with a more robust, distributed solution; this is a great interim step to save some electricity and get rid of that ceiling-mounted-space-heater light I have now. Thanks again!

    • @cdrice999
      @cdrice999 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh! And for those shopping around, right now there is an automatic 15% coupon for the #3 light, bringing the price down to $38. At least there was for me -- However amazon's algorithms work... your mileage/discount may vary.

      @@WorkshopAddict Installed tonight and just came in from testing. Using same app (but obviously different phone, so values may differ -- but the relative increase in light is obvious) -- With old light I measured a min/avg/max of 2/68/114... With new #3 light I measured 4/270/730!
      Those minimum values are from about 1/4 of the garage which lies in shadow between the overhead light and some overhead/hanging storage - the only way to fix for that area will be to install more lights (well, or remove the overheard storage, but that's not happ'nin!). :)
      My long-term plan is to completely overhaul the garage lighting and install multiple fixtures -- but this is a great interim step just to bridge the time between now and then. Especially with the amazon coupon knocking the price down, this was a no-brainer for a great upgrade.
      Thanks again for the great video!

      @@WorkshopAddict Indeed. Part of that is likely due to phone sensor differences; but another bit is likely from a combination of my 10' ceilings, and I have the wings swept "up" quite a bit to try and cast light in all directions vs. more of a flat/downward-facing angle. I may try to experiment with the angle of the wings a bit to see how much of a difference it makes to the furthest corners vs. directly below.

      I have a new set I am trying that are double the size of many of the ones tested. These new ones help to reduce shadows and get light everywhere. So if 3 or 8 don't get you going, wait for the next video in about 2 weeks. Put in about 9 to 12 outlets for lights, unless you are already dealing with a set amount.

    I bought two of the # 3 units (at 3:48). I screwed one into my overhead porcelain garage fixture. On the fixture, the porcelain body of the fixture is lower than the metal threaded portion that one screws the bulb into, and prevents the contact on the bulb from contacting the electrical contact in the fixture. The collar around the threaded portion of the light is too "fat". Disappointed.
