You could buy any regular 60/100W outdoor fixture and use LED bulb


2700-3000K is the color temperature in Kelvin. Color temperature is not related to brightness. Brightness in measured in lumens, higher = brighter. I've been using the same model Philips in my motion sensor light fixtures with open bottoms for two years now. The linked bulbs are 1500 lumens. Sodium lights actually have a negative color rendering index. My personal preference is Philips bulbs now after having two more expensive Cree BR30s fail in the past year. Linked bulbs are two pack for $13.
