At that price point, you can get some serious lighting that would blow those out of the water. Also, I personally wouldn't want motion sensing in the garage because if you're under the car and they shut off, that would get annoying.How much did you guys say you paid for those paddle type LED's? Saw these on Griot's Garage.
Motion Activated LED Ceiling Light - Griot's Garage
I realize these have motion detect, but c'mon Griot's.
Saw these at Home Depot the other day. Hella bright I'd say.4 of These are in the lower center section of my Garage. It's like daylight in there.View attachment 1682580View attachment 1682581

Bob, I totally removed my old 4 foot florescent fixtures and just replaced with a single screw in socket. No special fixture required. I think maybe the seller could be referring to removing the ballast if you were trying to install long tube florescent bulbs that resemble regular florescent bulbs in a existing fixture. Buy the way I have since replaced the ones in my wood shop with led, slightly different fixture. LED is the way to go. Just getting rid of the noise from florescent fixtures humming makes it worth it. Our main garage is only heated to 50 degrees and I haven't noticed any type of negative bulb performance like one would experience with florescent fixtures.I forgot to ask. Are there any special considerations when installing these ultra-bright Corn Cob LED lights? One seller says to be sure the base will work in your fixture and to remove or bypass the ballast in your electric circuit before installation.
Bob I have one of those and love it. I already had a standard bulb fixture, it just screws right in. They probably sell multiple bulbs and just use the same text - ie some bathroom mirror fixtures are a small base/socketI forgot to ask.

I have that issue when the garage door is open as my car is always backed in.When laying out your lighting just make sure you’ve got one that the engine bay won’t be blocked out once the hood goes up. I added an 8’ led a neighbor gave me just in front of my car and rarely need a flashlight for anything in the engine now
I saw some lights that attach to the garage door and come on when it opens but it was stupid expensive.I have that issue when the garage door is open as my car is always backed in.

Thanks for the clarification. I thought maybe it was a special socket. My paddle bulbs are working great, but it never hurts to have MORE light. I only have two sockets at the 3/4 point towards the rear. I never added sockets at the front end because of the garage door blocking them when they're open.Bob I have one of those and love it.

I’d say it’s a combo of CYA and bad translation.
