I have slowly replaced flourescent tubes with toolstation LED substitute tubes. I preferred these over complete sealed LED assemblies, as firstly they were easier to fit (you get a plug in substitute for the redundant starter) and secondly if/when they wear out I don't have to bin the whole fitting but just fit another tube.
One of the big advantages is instant light, especially when I just pop into the workshop for a few moments. Previously the very last tube would still be coughing into life as I switched off and went back to the house.
