The most common ones now are T-5 and T-8's. These numbers come from the diameter of the tubes. Flourescent tubes are measured in 1/8" increments, so a T-5 is 5/8" diameter, T-8 is 1". If you have a electrical supply house in your area (I mean a actual supply house where contractors go, not Homedepot,lowes,menards)go talk to them. Give them your shop specs (size, height, interior wall surface type) and they will give you a layout of how many of what type fixture will work best. May be t8's or t5's.....just depends. I like the T5's myself. IF you do put them in your shop, I suggest getting ones with a lense. This helps keep the dust out of the reflector. IF your reflectors get dirty, the light output will drop dramatically, but it will be over time so you wont notice. Also, order clear plexiglass reflectors, the prismatic ones also cut down on light emmitance. Also, make sure they give you the highest color rendering number avaliabale. Dont know what the latest/hightest is off top of my head, but this is important also.
