If nobody replies in here, I went with Feit C10000 LED "bulbs" in my garage. 10k lumens each, couple that with the gloss white paint on the walls and ceiling, and it's nearly as bright as daylight inside my garage when you flip the switch.

 

Could possibly disperse the light better, but for what I've grown up with and the work I do, it's pretty great as is. =)

 

Cost was reasonably for the light output, if you buy in 4-packs they're a bit over $50 each.
