These LED lights have a slight power-on delay that could be annoying to some users.  Since these are a lower watt light, we recommend these for areas that have more fixtures.  We have 12 of these lights in our 30' x 32' show and the lighting is amazing.  We have had these for over a year without any issues.  The 5000K color temperature is perfect for working on cars and wiring as the colors show perfectly. 

2. 60W Deformable LED Garage Light, 6000 Lumens, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, 2-Year warranty, $28.95: https://amzn.to/2uD9xG6

These LED lights have a slight power-on delay that could be annoying to some users.   There is a good amount of light coming from the fixture with a slight amount of glare when you look right at the bulb.  The light seems a bit bluer and that is explained by the color temperature rating of 6000K. 

3. SANSI 60W Deformable LED Garage Light, 6000 Lumens, 5000K Daylight, Non-Dimmable, 5-Year warranty, $44.99: https://amzn.to/2thM3WH

These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light.  They are made out of plastic, but the design does allow the heat from the LED pods to escape upward.  Light dissipation is amazing and we have been more than thrilled with these lights in both of our smaller garages for the last two months.  Glare is not minimal with this style of light due to the design.  They are on the pricier side, but worth the cost.

4.  60w Deformable LED Garage Light, 6000 Lumen, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, 3-Year warranty, $29.99: https://amzn.to/2U2OVls

Lux Light Meter App Reading: 266 Avg - 703 Max

These LED lights have a slight power-on delay that could be annoying to some users.   They light up the room well in a brighter light that does not seem as blue as some other 6000K models.  There is a slight amount of glare when you look right at the bulb. 

5.  60W Deformable LED Garage Ceiling Lights, 6000 Lumen, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, "Lifetime Service", $17.95: https://amzn.to/36uoWWD

Lux Light Meter App Reading: 231 Avg - 662 Max

These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light.  Out of all the lights we have gone over, if you are sensitive to any bright light or have low ceilings like in a basement, these are the light for you.  They are not as bright as other lights, but you can look right at them and see the light fixture in its entirety.  It comes with a stem to lower the bulb from the ceiling to keep the wings up a bit. 

6.  60W Deformable LED Garage Lights, 6000 Lumens, 6500K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, No warranty Listed, $26.95: https://amzn.to/38JZnCC

These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light.  Because of the light coming from 3 smaller areas, there is a slight amount of glare when you look at them.  For a metal wing light, these are the best performers in a 60-watt class. 

7.  80W Deformable LED Garage Lights, 8000 Lumens, 6000-6500K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, 2-Year warranty, $37.99: https://amzn.to/37uDLty

Lux Light Meter App Reading: 303 Avg - 940 Max

These LED lights do have a very slight power-on delay and most would feel they respond very close to a normal light bulb.  Out of the ones with a delay, this one is the least noticeable.  As we moved up in testing, it was clear that our wattage bumped up. 

8.  100W Deformable LED Garage Lights, 10000 Lumens, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, No warranty Listed, $39.99: https://amzn.to/3aIOxhP

Lux Light Meter App Reading: 435 Avg - 1322 Max

These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light.  There is more light than the light we list just above this one in the 80-watt form.  The 6000K color temperature is not bad and does not feel blue. 

9.  120W Deformable LED Garage Lights, 12000 Lumens, 6000K Pure Daylight, Non-Dimmable, No warranty Listed, $36.95: https://amzn.to/38K1E0C

Lux Light Meter App Reading: 418 Avg - 1394 Max

These LED lights do not have a power-on delay and respond like a normal light.  By far, this light outperformed the other lights as one would expect from the wattage.  But it did not outperform our #3 light above by that much for the extra wattage used.  This light is less expensive to purchase than the #3 above and really did an excellent job of lighting up the area around the light.
