I am building a small shop and thinking about lighting the place with LED tube

the T8 fluorescent lamp fixtures.

For the last year or so, the primary lighting for my shack has been four of the smaller LED strips from the vendor on the link below. My strips are older and smaller than those listed here, and appear to be discontinued, but the newer larger ones are even nicer. Mine run from 12VDC, and the combination draws about 1.2A from the 12V battery bus that runs everything in my shack except the power amps. I found them in a booth at the Pacificon and Visalia ham conventions.

For a shop, you would want a lot more light than my small system, but the beauty of a system like this is that the usual noise source for LED lighting, the power supply, is entirely within your control.
