Need help finding shades/clip on covers for 4 track light in new apartment.

Hi! Me and my partner just got a new apartment, and we have this light track we both dislike *First 2 images* We want to find a very chic, warm, and modern clip on shade for the 4 *Last 3 images are inspo for design obv not size* I have had no luck finding ones that seem to work as they are too big or way to small. We move in a couple weeks so I will be able to measure but its no bigger than 1-2 in when the clear shade is taken off. Any help is much appreciated

No heat sink = no real 120W? LED teardown analysis

Although it’s labeled as 120W, it was never truly designed to operate at that level. LEDs are highly sensitive to temperature, and without proper heat dissipation, performance and lifespan drop significantly. We recommend using lights with adequate heat sinks and certified PCBs for better thermal conductivity and safety. This is a typical example of poor-quality LED lighting.

What’s the best value for garage lights/workshop lights here in April 2026? (Value, not necessarily the lowest price)

I just sent back some T5s that I though were going to be my solution. They had a randomly intermittent clicking sound which was super annoying.

What can I buy that won’t disappoint? Shooting for 1000 lux for my workbench/assembly areas and 500 lux everywhere else.

Appreciate any opinions.

Poor heat transfer LED lighting, is it the reason of low wattage?

Motion Sensor Light for Art Project

Hello!

I am looking for a recommendation for a motion sensor light that:

-Can have a soft glow

-Will fade out after 3 seconds

-Ideally could be green (but worst case I cover with a gel)

-Can be connected to a power source but ideally is battery powered

Thank you!!

Tried to pick the closest flair (please delete if not allowed!)

Trying to identify this vintage torch lamp. Any ideas? A Google image search turned up Koch & Lowy but not with the brass finish. Thanks all!

Need advice on installing strip lights in an alcove shower

I have this bathroom project that I am trying to complete and based on the tile layout I will be left with a 1 1/8" gap between the last full tile and the ceiling. This is an alcove shower
I already installed 1 pot light right in the center of the alcove

I am looking for recommendations and advice on how to install lights at the top of the wall, and what components to use considering how wide is the gap there.

T10 LED glass tube

T10 LED glass tube

Just swapped a couple old tubes for T10 LED glass ones, and honestly they look way nicer than I expected. The light feels clean and soft, not harsh at all. Super simple upgrade for a workspace or garage. Anyone else messed around with T10 LEDs at home?

Can anyone help me figure out what type of lightbulb this is?

The lightbulbs in my bathroom have gone out and I need to replace them. I’ve been to a few hardware stores who tell me they don’t have anything like them. I’ve included pictures of the lightbulb and the fixture it goes into. Can you please help me find the exact link for what I need as I’m incredibly not handy. Thank you so so much in advance.
