Default Indeed! Not to mention my paint will be blistering as well as my skin...

I'll likely have them all switched separately and will also prolly have two in my basement shop area and 3 in my garage. Gonna be nice I think.

Default These are pretty sweet I think - meant to be mounted/suspended from the ceiling...

Default Cool, I was thinking yellow halogen work lamps. I have 4 $10 flourescent work lights like that

from Lowes. They work damn good too. 600 watts a piece and you will have your own small sun.
