I have a 30 x 36 shop and am using 5 8ft HO 2 bulb T-12s. These fixtures have been in service since '85 and no ballast failures. Getting ready for the second bulb replacement on a couple of them. Tough to beat a good quality commercial fixture.
I have two other 24 x 60 ft barns with around 40 4ft fixtures in each. These have been in use since about '90. Seems like every time I turn around I'm having to replace a ballast and/or bulbs. I'll take 2 8 footers over 6 4 footers any day of the week. If you ask me, it's just more parts to fail.
