    Need help picking T8 bulbs for my garage.

    I just ordered my Lithonia strip lights yesterday and there are so many bulb choices. I'm pretty sure I want 5,000k for my color but I'm looking for the most lumens I can get out of them. I don't want to give up 1/2 the bulb life to gain 50 or 100 lumens but I want the most bang for the bulb.
