Default An LED question

Spotlights sounds like one direction though. I'm looking at something where
the large ish globe is all evenly illuminated. My light perception is what
I'm after using having no focus any more spots would vanish if viewed from
other directions.

even buy holders as this is the problem in the current lights, ie

a
small defused led of some kind in series with a diode so I could share
the
ac cycles between lights soto speak.


Something like this might well do the job.

There are cheaper ones too but not quite so nice.
