I've got the T8 lights in my shop running from solid-state (GE) ballasts
that I picked up perhaps 20 years ago.   When I get to the bottom of the
box, I'll probably replace the fixtures with LED ones, so any
information like this is good to know.

FWIW, they're 4-lamp fixtures (2 ballast).   Replacements needn't fit
the original form factor--I suspect that there are smaller, more compact
LED fixtures with equivalent light output.
