Adding additional garage lighting

Garages are normally dim affairs, making it difficult to find garden or auto tools.  I often work on my own cars and also plan to use this area as a small gym.  With that in mind I decided to add some additional lighting beyond the single 75W bulb.  The classic fluorescent light is cheap, dependable and doesn't consume too much power.  I bought two shop lights that were four feet long and use T-8 bulbs.  Using the supplied chains I attached them three feet distant from the original bulb and wired them up to the junction box.  Now the garage has plenty of light.
