I am totally ignorant of lighting, so forgive me if this is a ridiculous question:

We want to replace the fluorescent box light in our kitchen. I found two fixtures I'm considering. One uses three 75 watt bulbs and is flushmount, so all the light is coming out the bottom and sides of the fixture. The other uses one 100 watt bulb but has a short stem so light will leave the fixture from the top, sides and bottom.

Which one of them will give off more light? Thanks in advance.
