Bennelson,
Thanks for the review!
I really love the LED's and as I suspected they are brighter. I only put one in each FL holder as that was enough for me. So I went from two bulbs to one LED and it still is better than the FL's.
I just bought an LED work light from eBay. I'll let everyone know how it works out. I'm tired of the super hot fragile fixtures that keep going out when I need them the most.
