cheapest place for fluorescent light fixtures?
i need about a dozen dual-bulb fixtures to light up my basement/garage properly, so i'm looking to get them on the cheap. what's my best bet? i'm guessing it's still going to be home depot.

look into local wholesale warehouses, this summer I've worked at a local one that sells lights like you're describing. You'll usually get a better deal through them, and won't have to deal with the b/s of going to home depot.

nice layout, seems like it would be a good idea for all the lights with different switches to turn on different groups.
epoxy floors... never dealt with it, but it is a good idea to get something besides basic cement. i put some sort of tiles all over my garage that was very easy to cut and lay out

If you stumble into a good deal, let me know. I need some more for my garage.
Right now I have a dual 8' T12 setup (pendant mount with reflector). Shit cost me ~$80 with bulbs and an electrical cord. |

Damn you, you beat me to it lol. Usually if the question is "I need ________ for super cheap", be it hand tools, welders, model airplanes, solar panels, or a bag of 50,000 latex gloves, the answer is always "Harbor Freight."

I know for sure they sell the bulbs, but the actual fixtures I'm not quite sure. I couldn't find them online but its probably worth stopping in the store if you're nearby.

it was awesome living with my parents. two car detached garage and a three car carport (and still not enough to park all the cars for some reason). at this house, we've got the parking space i've described, and we're also laying out a two car carport in back for extra covered parking. we get hail a couple times a year, plus nobody likes cleaning off snow. value > excessive spending. it's a wide space, we'd need lots of fixtures anyway
