[QUOTE="Myk Lund, post: 132614, member: 1425"] My opinion LED all the way if its a new build. We are about 4 weeks from completion ourselves. LED uses less electricity, no excess heat, and no ballasts to fail. I also looked at high output fluorescent and they are bright and cheap..but not in the long run again in my opinion. Also if you are heating that garage I would highly recommend well insulated as mentioned above and putting in gas IF you want to keep it at a constant usable temp all winter which can be 6 months long as I look out and see it snowing already. Electric if you only want to heat it occasionally, weekends, ect. Full time electric heaters are SPENDY to run. (My garage is 1162SF with attached storage room and I would need 2 7500W to keep it toasty and the electrician figures $300+a month even on off peak meter to keep it that way. :(- I plan on using my garage so that was not an option for me.
