  5. wow man, definitely a nice find. i was gonna leap and just get hps but THIS is a lot easier than setting up like 6 cfl bulbs aha
     
  6. They are only 65 watts each, which in my opinion is barely enough for 1 plant per ballast/bulb

    I bought these online and they screw in to any normal socket,they are self ballasting.
    Like $18 bucks or so each and they are 85 watts.

    Plus I signed up for Google checkout and got $10 off the total!!!!!

  7. 2 85 W CFL's 1 - 400 Watt MH/HPS

  8. The major drawback to screw-ins is that they dont come with reflectors. You should build your own cuz your only utilizing about half the power.

    Where did you buy those 85W CFL? Online?
     
  9. I am not to worried cuz the cfl's are mainly for the under growth bud sites, but now that I am LST'ing I may try to make some type of reflector.

  10. i found those same lights on ebay. the cfl box fixture flourex ones. do they plug right into a standard outlet?
     
  11. Damn what a tease this guy is. i bet this is the guy that is selling them on ebay lol.
     
  12. It's a better deal off ebay or even amazon because that handy reflector is worth the extra $$.
     
  13. i wasnt trying to dis the product any. it looks great i wouldnt mine getting one or to my self but do you know if they got a different spectrum bulb you can buy so you can flower with it?
     
  14. Damn those are sweet! Where online did you get em? Only $18 each. Good deal for 170 watts!!!:hello:
     
  15. You can get 130w compact fluro's ..... www.hygrow.net 14000k are best for growth
     
  16. Wish these lights had a bulb replacement. Do they use standard outlet (someone asked before)?
     
  17. should be E39/E40 base socket
