Read the thread on LED vs florescent bulbs, went to Home Despot, purchased one of the 1700 lumen led plugins.
Dropped two s units of noise for $50.00 and change.
Bux well spent.

I started replacing our CFLs and other lights in our home with LEDs some time

overall noise level DROPPED when I had replaced about half of those here.

I have the old standard flourescent lights in my shack, but have had minimal 
noise from
those. However, they are quite old and have the older linear type ballasts in 
them.

I recently went down to the local hardware store to try to buy some replacement 
lamps for
those, and found that they are no longer being made.

In the very near future, when I have to replace the F-20-T-12 lamps here, which 
I can no
longer get, I'll switch over to the LED types.
