I recently put up lights in a new 30X48X12 pole barn. I put two rows of six four tube T8 fluorescent fixtures, for a total of 12 fixtures.
I'm more than satisfied with the result, and I like plenty of light when I work. I got the fixtures from Home Depot for around $40 each, and each fixture has an outlet on one end and a four foot electrical cord on the other. When I installed them, I just went down the line, hanging a fixture and plugging it into the previous one. I put an individual switch on each row, but I only needed one outlet at the start of each row.
A nephew of ours recently put LED lights in a similar sized shop. He claims he spent $14,000 on the lighting system. Even for LED, I thought that was awful high. Since I spent about $600 total including wiring, etc., even if my system uses a tad more electricity it will take a long time to make up the $13,400 difference.

With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
