the lights arrived Monday
last night i got around to a quick test
i used velcro strips to attach (2) lamps to the ceiling
right beside the existing fixture above the foot of the bed
the existing fixture is one of my FL conversions with (2) strips of 5050 SMD leds inside and a frosted cover
the new lamps have 2835 SMD leds (smaller leds-with more per foot)
IIRC the conversion tested at 7w power use {
edit..quick power check..bedroom LED conversion is 10w power use}
the (2) new lamps are rated a 4w each , 8w total, have clear lens cover
the new lamps are brighter
i took about ten pictures, of the bed and the DOG sleeping, but didn't do a good job
and need to take them again, but here are two, showing the light beaming down on the foot of the bed
existing (2) strip conversion 10w frosted lens/defuser {originally 30w florescent}
New (2) lamps 8w clear lens, velcro to ceiling
edit the kitchen counter, bathroom and hall light conversions use 7w {two shorter strips} {originally 18w florescent}
