Here's a website that sells LEDs and has instructions on how to convert your fixtures eliminating the ballasts. Using this website, and going for the 2900 lumen bulbs it would cost me $281.60 to convert my shop. No labor costs. Now my question would be, how many hours of operation before I recoup that cost. Assuming I remove my current bulbs which are working fine.

Well we would have to know how many watts your current 8 fixtures use per hour, versus what the new LED would use per hour, and then how much the electric company charges per hour. If I get bored at work today, I'll see "watt" I can come up with.
