Anyone do any after hour working where you have to bring out the lights to finish up your work? I'd truly appreciate some suggestions
 
There's a brand offered by an orange big box retailer that has a nice multidirectional LED for 99.99 that I keep threatening to buy 2 of so I can extend my outside hours during the winter :)
 
Just curious, is there such thing as too bright? I'm wanting to build my own light stands and use led floodlights but just wondering what watt I should get.

I use the Snap On LED work lights. I bought mine from Costco for around $25 but I can't seem to find them on the site. They are rated at 2000 lumens and work well to illuminate my poorly lit garage in the night.

I am also thinkinga about the DIY posted above but these lights arent bad.

Hope you get something that works for you :)

I use the Snap On one also. I have it mounted on my cart. Works quite well. I doing detail work on some custom show cars and the guy that owners them just bought these two lights for me to use. I think when I'm done I'm going to get the Ace one for myself.

the Ace Hardware lights have less watts and did not see lumens but what I like about them is they have the right color temp of 5000k.
 
Thanks guys for the input...it's given me plenty to choose from...can't wait to get going
 
This rule is just getting plain old and tired. I also don't think it applies to something like this as there are ZERO work lights for sale on AG. So tell me FinishingTouchA, are you the kind of person that goes on telling on everyone? Nobody likes a tattletale. Nobody.
 
You also might want to consider lighting available from Big Ass Fan. Just do a search for it. If I were not just a hobbiest detailer, I would seriously consider these lights. Wall mount kits are available. They are expensive but probably worth it for those of you doing this as a business.
 
Nevermind, it is only for products that compete with what AG sells. I was just in a bad mood that day :p
 
Actually this model is the least powered of everything that has been posted. The actual power rating is for 2-50w cob cluster panels. When dealing with LED's you have to remember that the numbers are just there for marketing when dealing with cob panels. (lots of small lights diodes to make one big panel). The more diodes in the cluster, the lesser the light intensity. Just one single Led Flood Par 38 bulb has a rating of 90-120 wattes with it's single cob. I just got my light project shimpment yesterday for under $135.00 and it has a stand and boom arm as well as 4 - 100 watt LED bulbs with sandbags and extra mounting brackets.
