    Lighting utility room
    I found a white light fixture with 3 lights and a glass cover not clear but smoked or off white. I seem to think fluorescent lighting when I think utility room. I thought if I put in those new fluorescent 60's that use just 13 watts it would work fine and if that is too much light as the area is approximately 75 sq feet I could just put in 40 watt florescents to adjust.

    The utility room has a hall way leading to the upstairs but there is no light so I thought a little extra light may light the hall way some and the closet when the door is open. I guess the only thing I'm not sure of is with the fixture having the white or smoked glass will the light be the same as if I used a regular fluorescent fixture. Probably, but its nice to have things worked out completely before you do this home stuff to keep from having to undo something. Any comments?
