I don't have any pics right now, but in the main room of my hangar, I have 4 rows of multiple 2 bulb x 4' fixtures running nearly full width. Each bank is on a seperate switch allowing me to only use some of them if desired (approximately 50' x 50 x 13' ceiling).

In my paintbooth/auto repair shop (20' x 30' x 13' ceiling) I have two rows running length wise on the ceiling along with (4) sets mounted vertically on the walls on seperate switches. This gives me pretty decent lighting for working in the wheel wells when the car is up on the lift. I also have 4' tall (1 - 2 bulb 4' fixture) and 8' tall (2 -2 bulb 4' fixtures) light fixture stands made from 2x4's that I can position where needed. These work great when laid horizontally on the floor under my lift when working under the car. I also have some 2 bulb x 4' fixtures hanging on chains above some of my workbenches. ALL use standard 4' bulbs.
