If they hide all day with the light on and don't hide much with the light off then that means the overhead light is working great for your situation cause your normal daytime room light isn't enough

I use 75 watt bulbs in my 10 inch clamp lamps cause I have very dark curtains and it's really helps to mimic the day cycle. I put the regular bulbs on from 8am - 7pm, then I use red zoomed bulbs for night viewing and I turn them off at about 11pm, then when I wake up in the morning I start the process all over again.

My gecko's have got so use to this schedule that in the morning when I put the lights on they go right back the hides and sleep almost all day except to get a drink every now and then. When I shut the regular lights off at 7pm and they hear the dome light make the clicking sound to turn off then they come out within seconds !!

Here is some pix of my setups http://www.geckoforums.net/showthread.php?t=12753
