LED 48" bulbs at Costco

[Cian]

For those who missed out on the Costco LED shoplight sale, or for those who are happy with their fixtures/ballasts and just want to do a bulb swap, right across the aisle they had these:  

Two bulbs for $15.99 at 1700 Lumens each and 4100K color temp.

I'd like too convert, but with twenty-five 8' 4-bulb lights in the shop, that would be some serious coin

Heck of a deal. I paid $40+ for mine and still need some more. Shame its not closer

I saw those and thought about it; but only 1700 lumens, I guess times two; the shop lights were 4k lumens, assuming 2k each.

What's the flaw in these? Besides 1600 lumens/tube. I can't tell if they're ballast, no ballast or hybrid.

If I'm reading this right, 4 tubes for $4.99 marked down from $19.98

I outfitted my entire garage with these.  I ended up buying the 16 pack for $17.98.  Note there are 2 versions:  Daylight and Bright White.  I went with the Bridge White.  They simply replaced the florescent bulbs I had in there.  No issues so far (have used them about 6 months).

Spec says "Ballast Type Compatible"  means they have ballast and must be electronic.
