4ft (1.2m) LED fixture for the garage arrived too damaged to use. Instead, I installed a $5 porcelain E26 lampholder and $10 utility LED.

The nice thing about large fixtures is that they cast diffused shadows. It is really nice to not cast a significant shadow on whatever you are working on on the bench.
