I tried Ott Lights 2 of them but they didn't provide the overhead light I needed, and we do not have any overhead lights in my sewing area (converted the attached garge into my sewing space.) While at Lowe's the other day, I stumbled upon a 4 foot shop light that can plug into the wall. We have some industrial type of ceiling tiles over my sewing machine, so I just screwed in the hangers and then hung the light right over my machine - voile I have great light now and all for the price of twenty bucks.
