Favorite Lighting Fixtures?

[sully75]

Any suggestions on some nice, economical lighting fixtures?

I'm pulling out my old ones (50 years old and kind of tired). I have one of these red/white west marine dome lights and like it although it's not super bright:
WEST MARINE Economy LED Dome Light | West Marine

So I think I'm going to install 4 of them in the main cabin, one under the hard dodger and one in the v-berth. (the price is right)

But I'd like to add in a couple of bright bare bulb type lights. Or perhaps something else I haven't thought of, for reading. Just wondering if anyone has something they like particularly? West Marine reviews are not that helpful.

I'm interested in this also. We have a couple that need replacing.

Nice and economical don't always go together, there are many potential problems with LED's.
I've learned although it cost a lot more in the beginning to buy from Marine Beam, their stuff works, has good color and no radio interference issues, I still have some Ebay and Amazon.com LED's, but they are supplemental only.
