You can upgrade your halogen work light to LED yourself and save a lot of money over purchasing a pre built led setup from a big box store. I go over the details of the led lights that I purchased, where I bought them, how much they cost, and why I chose these particular ones. I also cover installation, wattages, wiring considerations, work light upgrades, and information about color temperatures for workshop lighting.

I was waiting for some free time to post my Halogen to LED conversion.

I have found (first online at LED light sellers, now at big-box stores) LED Replacements for these hot power hungry halogen bulbs.
They're called R7S
I like to call these styles of lights 'Artificial Sun'
