High CRI Workshop LEDs

[Ed Edwards]

I guess I should have known what CRI was. But I didn’t until I Googled it.
Why can’t the writer at least spell it out once and then use an abbreviation? Ed

These bulbs get good reviews:

Unfortunately the Hyperikon T8 style are high CRI, but their shop light kits only come with low-80's. So you could by empty LED-ready strip lights and put the bulbs in, but probably a little extra cost.
You can also by direct from Hyperikon, and on their website they have "make an offer" on their bulb packs.

That is what I just did, the ones I wanted were cheaper on their website than on amazon and while they did not accept my offer they knocked 7% off which I took.

Point taken, but it's too late to edit the original post.

I just recently posted that I put up new shop lighting. The glass globes allow light to bounce off the ceiling and diffuse, very much minimizing any shadows. The standard bulbs give me lots of options versus a fluorescent format.

Reposting pics here showing lights and shadow with hand about 6" off bench.

I dunno. A strip light on every other joist would give you about 50x as much light and no shadows.
