I replaced my workshop lights this past weekend with the LED bulbs also. They weren't cheap and for the price I don't think it was worth it. They weren't that much brighter or whiter compared to a good bulb after a few minutes of warmup. They were Instant on though.
Which brand lights did you use? I know you get what you pay for.
I paid about $25 a bulb with tax at Home Depot. So 50 bucks a fixture isn't cheap just for bulbs.
