I was thinking about bulding at least one.I think I would drill a lot of
holes in a cheap wide shallow plastic bowl and put LED bulbs in the
holes and connect to wires to a battery holder which would lay inside of
the bowl and have three strings so as to hang the light evenly (sort of
like those hanging potted plants) from my living room ceiling light, the
little brass threaded ferule which holds the glass clobe on to the
original ceiling light, I can make a little wire hook to hang the light
from.This would be for if the electric power gets knocked out (stormy
weather, whatever) for an extended lenght of time.I was wondering how
well something like that might work out? If it works ok, I can build
more LED battery powered ''ceiling lights'' for other rooms in my house.

Why not make use of the stick-on battery powered LED lights that are made
specifically for such things as power outages ? They are dirt cheap here in
the UK, and seem to work quite well. I'm sure you could find something like
a plastic plate to stick it to, in order to make your 'hanging basket'
arrangement ??
