Thanks for all the responses. I don't have a Menards or Rural King here but I could order them online.
I think I'm going to stay away from the LED tubes that go in existing fixtures as I just have the cheap hanging shop fixtures and it seems worth a bit more to get rid of them and their guts outright. I'm leery of the cheap fixtures and lights being sold so it's good to hear what people have found to work good.
As one person suggested wire the shop with old school single bulb fixtures and put 100w equiv screw in LEDs. I had thought of this but I think it'll be quicker to replace hanging 4' fixtures with the same. Plus I think the distribution of light will be evener--I think. That said I've been looking to add lighting to a couple 18x20 out-buildings that currently only have one bulb (just so I can see to walk in at night). I've been thinking of buying a string light (this one https://www.harborfreight.com/24-ft-12-bulb-outdoor-string-lights-63483.html ) and replacing the included bulbs with 100w equiv LED bulbs and stringing it up down the center of the roof. 100w equiv LED bulbs can be bought 2 for a dollar at Dollar Tree now. That'd be a lot of lumen but I just wonder how well distributed (thus usable) the light will be--then again I doubt I'll be doing much actual work in there anyway so perhaps I should forget it all together.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
