In the garage, I had two fluorescent tube fixtures, one over each car.
One of them has been buzzing, I got new tubes (40" or 40W?) and it still buzzed.

Anyways, I had some old security light parts left over and I have a bunch of left-over 65w CFL floods..
So, I recycled the parts and made a new fixture to replace the old Buzzer..

Two of those old 65w CFLs came out of the security light fixture for the back deck.
It now has some new $8.00 75w LEDs from Lowes.

I used clear Krylon spray paint on these bulbs to make them more water-resistant..(I hope).
It rained last night, but not enough for a good test..
