For those of you who use 4-foot T8 bulbs, I just saw T8s with LEDs. Much brighter, whiter light. The guy who handles them at my lighting supply store was off today, so I don't know the price (next stop Google). First impression -- a big improvement, especially for this old guy's eyes.

I just finished changing out my 8' T12's to T8 in the unheated half of
my shop. I got tired of the buzzing and flickering in the winter.
Also changed out the one in the un-walled shed. On the coldest nights
(Georgia) the come on instantly.

I also need a lot of light. Probably will get my cataracts changed
out in the next year.
LED's are nice in a good flashlight, but to light the whole shop-- not
ready for that yet.
