Go with the LEDs; you'll never regret it. However, there are many choices out there, and a wide price range.
I have replaced all my 4' two-tube flourescent units with 5000 lumen LED units and the difference is dramatic. I caught them on sale at our local Farm & Home supply and replaced them over a 6 month period. Sale price was always under $20 each.
I have 12' ceilings in a 30' x 40' building and have 12 lights mounted at ceiling level, and four separate zones. With all of them on it's like a tanning room! (but as we age, light becomes more and more important.)
