    Hi,

    I recently added a few more fluorescent light fixtures to my workshop and found that the 4 foot T-8 style worked very well. I don't have any experience with LED lights that might be used for a workshop environment. HAGD

    I'd go with full spectrum fluorescent. LED lights for spot locations. A Mini Mag Lite flashlight with an LED bulb is awesome.
