Would this light bar be fine with regular A19 LED bulbs?

I know this is a strange if not off-topic question, but I don't know where else to ask.

I have this old Harwood light bar with a handle that would be perfect for when I'm working on PCs under dark desks. It came with four 375w "Movie Light EBR" bulbs that are blindingly bright and unsuitable for my purpose, not to mention they evidently have lifespans of only 4 hours.

I have loads of A19 LED bulbs that would emit the right amount of light, but I wanted to ask first if there's any potential for problems using them in this fixture. My limited experience with electronics tells me that it should be fine, but I prefer to be safe.

Here's a couple of pictures if it helps:

I am no electrician, but if the sockets are designed for 375w and you put in a 15w bulb you should be good from a heat and current perspective.
