Key Points

T12s are everywhere The further they are from a metro area the less they’ll be sought out for upgrades

You can make the difference And while you’re at it:

Every old-technology metal halide high-bay light in your service area could be replaced by T5 or T8 fluorescent fixtures and save 40-60% power

Upgrading one 400W metal halide fixture can do as much as upgrading 5 or 6 4-lamp T12 troffers
