My workshop was too dim, making it difficult to clearly see what I was doing as I worked on my Speads RM11 race car. So I took a chance on some modular, hex LED lighting from China. As it turns out, it was well worth it. This video covers the unboxing and then installation of the lighting. This includes some trouble shooting and 3D printing to get the system fitted accurately.
As the disclaimer at the start says, please ensure you employ a professional for mains electrical work.
One thing I didn't mention was power consumption. Both of these on at once consumes ~800 watts, the equivalent of a small heater.
