@Donald, lots of good discussion on this thread from a year ago:
Fluorescent Light Fixture Upgrade to LEDs
Don't get the LED tubes that rely on a ballast as they will fail/flicker/dim in a couple of years. The direct wire to 120V AC current is the only way to go. I learned the lesson the hard way, but upgraded to direct wire LED tubes ~6 years ago and they have performed flawlessly. An added advantage is that they are instant-on without the 1-2 second delay of the ballast powered LEDs.
