My garage had 2 single 100 watt bulbs when I bought the house. I replaced those single bulb fixtures with outlets and plugged in 6 LED shop lights from Costco in two rows. 37 Watts / 3800 lumens each. They are the old style that look like florescent tube lights with pull chains so while they all turn on with one switch I can have from 1 to 6 turned on depending on what I'm doing.

I also have two spot lights above the workbench. They are plugged into the row of outlets I added when I moved in. I turn them on and off with voice activated smart plugs. It works but looks a bit messy. If I was to do it again I would put two outlets for the lights up at the top of the wall instead of just having a row at chest height.
