Any recommendations for cheap garage/workshop lighting. I usually prefer flourcent lighting....but its expensive and i can't seem to find any second hand.
How cheap do you want, a single 4 foot fluorescent is about £13 in B&Q, even cheaper if you can use a trade outlet, I wouldnt bother with second hand you need them to come on when you press the switch, not flicker at you.
I bought a job lot of fluorescents out of an office refurb on eBay. Figured about half would work, which was about right, plus got the bulbs, starters etc from the others. So much better than sodding low bay lights that NEVER work!
We had a stack of used fluoro recessed ceiling units at work; I wondered for a while if I could spirit a few away for my workshop but didn't get round to talking to the boss.
Came back from a week working in Pompey and found they'd all been skipped
