Garage
I had 6 two tube 4 foot fluorescent in my garage. I started doing a power audit on my house and installed and ammeter in the lighting circuit for the garage. Those things were pulling 50 watts each for a total of 300 watts. I thought they were efficient!!!

I installed 6 15 watt LED floods @ $10.00 each and they pull 15 watts or a total of 80 watts for the same if not brighter light. That is less than 1 replacement fluorescent tube!!

AND they will last up to 45,000 hours.

I am way ahead!!!
