| Hi all, There is a really nice pendant light that I like. I want to use it over a bath vanity in a small 8x5 bath. The only issue is that it is only 40 watt maximum. Would this be enough light for a bath vanity? There will also be a fluorescent recessed light in the tub area, and a small window over the toilet, so the 40 watt pendant is only to light the vanity. |

| 40 watts of CF or LED throws a lot of lumens. Not so much for incandescent bulbs. |

| hi ionized, the pendant i like is 40 watts incandescent. so do you think that would not be bright enough? unfortunately, the glass is clear, so i could not stick a cfl inside.. this is the pendant i am thinking of.. anyone know of something similar that might be brighter? thanks!! |

| Maybe try one of the Switch LED bulbs when they come out. (Currently vaporware, but they say they should be out in the next couple of months.) |

| "Not so much for incandescent bulbs." 40 watts of halogen is VERY bright. |
