Most of these new LED bulbs are type A&B, which work with and without a ballast. I prefer to remove the ballast altogether, which makes it more simple, reliable, and energy efficient than these bulbs. That being said, if you don't want to do any wiring, and your ballasts are still good, these are easy to just plug in and go.
The LEDs were well packed, no broken bulbs or bent end pins in either box.
They didn't make the old ballasts buzz or have any problems with flickering.
At 1800 lumen, I worried that they would be dimmer than the old t8 bulbs that claimed to be 2500 lumen
But between blowing out decades of dust from the diffusers and the zillion hours on the old T8s, they appear to be equally bright.
Here is a pic to show you that the LED bulbs look like daylight and the old t8 look like antiques:

tried replacing my t8 with the costco led t8 but one worked and 1 didn't. readjusted the bulb then the other side did not work.
Got home and replaced all the T12's with T8's. NONE of them worked. Not 2, or 4, or 6 or all 8 of them. Went to a different hardware store and bought a box of T12's. Put them in and they worked fine.
Story summary is -- T8 is not always interchangeable with T12. At least not in my fixtures.
You just look at the chart on the ballast label
It shows exactly what bulbs the ballast can drive
If it says T12 only - then you are stuck buying $6.00 Direct Wire LED bulbs, and bypassing that old ballast .
If it says T12, T10 and T8, then you can use these $1.50 LED bulbs

Does anyone have recommendations for a deal on good direct-wire T8 LEDs?

....Although even at $40 ($2 a bulb), it may be the best deal on a brand name LED T8
This is the kit -- there may be others out there that are cheaper, this is the one I have personally used so I know it's good. It is easy if you're a light do-it-yourselfer. Obviously cut the power off and the switch off to be safe, cut the ballast out of the equation, and insert the black and white wires into the kit above, and snap the "tombstones" into place in the fixture.
I'm not an electrician, but I've replaced several light and fan fixtures around my house, put in a new breaker to replace a bad one, etc.
