just some extra info. I have them in my old sewing room. We hired an electrician to look at the new room, bc we had some other issues around the house.
He said that flourescent lighting cost more bc it takes more wattage to keep turning it off and on, and I read the other day online that flourescent lighting put's out rays similar to the sun and can, over time, affect fabrics.
Good thing I had all mine on shelves with covers over them!
I'm not using flourescent in my new room...jmho
