Hi Guys,
Anyone use these t8 retrofit led bulbs in a work shed.

The indoor gardening fellas all say led bulbs suck. You'd probably be better off with daylight fluorescent tubes.
 
T-8 are daylight fluorescent, just make sure you get ones in the right temp. 6500k is good, bright white, not soft white. I use one dual fixture in my shed and two in my shop; one above my bench and the other in the center of the room. i have more than enough light.

I meant the retrofitted t8 bulbs with led's in them, using a quick start ballast, not flourescent.
Which do you have?
