You will want to install H.O. (High Output) fluorescent fixtures, or electronic ballast fixtures that have a cold temp rating. The 8' H.O. fixtures are about $100 at Home Depot, the $35 fixtures will only work if the temp will never drop below 50 degrees F. The 4' H.O. fixtures run $50 at Home Depot. Failure to install the proper temp rating will result in irritating strobe-type effects or the fixture not firing up at all. Trust me, the H.O. fixtures are well worth the money, and their light output is much better than the cheapo fixtures.
