I have stripped and rebuilt bikes just by the light of my Lezyne Macro Drive pointed at the white ceiling of my shed, I would much prefer a 240v light but will see how this LED strip works out. It will mostly be for locking the bike up in the evening. I too run an extension lead out to my shed if I need power but I find it a faff. Doubt I could run permanent mains as it would need to cross a technically shared path.

Those strips look pretty bright on the picture. I might get something like that in addition to proper lights for soldering / small detail stuff.
I'd like to have proper power in mine too. I may do it at some point, but it's a really small shed (6x6) and I've not put the bikes back in yet. I want to see if I can fit them in there and still move about before I get too over the top about turning it into a garden workshop - I caught myself researching dust-collection last night, which might be a little ambitious...

Ok - thanks all. I do the occasional project in there, so I want decent light, just don't want the hassle of get the whole shed properly wired in
I think this answers my question - sounds like I can just wire a standard bulb pendant onto a three pin plug rather than into a light switch on the wall.
Voltage (current?) is a total mystery to me - I wasn't sure if it would work / burn the shed down.
