Cattle shed lights

Lights in the cattle sheds are starting to give a bit of bother. They have a mixture of hanging pendant 100w bulbs, halogen and metal halide lamps, the later being 150w. My ideal scenario would be to replace a few at a time with LED lamps.
Looking for recommendations as to size and brand of lights to use.

Been on Luxum for 4 or 5 years never had a failure
