I bought inexpensive 4’ LED’s from Amazon, I think it was 4 sets of 2 LEDs per package. IIRC it was about $60 or so to the door. These had grounded plugs on the ends, which was fine as that was how I had my garage set up. I pulled down the 4’ fluorescents and up went the LEDs. I had to make a simple mounting bracket, but each light went up in minutes. SOOOOO much brighter! Chuck those fluorescents in the garbage.

EDIT: I never noticed how old the thread was until I looked a few posts above mine. Yep, the world is changing fast. If only we could make old threads easier to see. Maybe some LED’s?
