does anyone know about the T8 tubes

Khronik if you buy the t8 ballasts on ebay express you can get 10 for $30. Then all you have to do is swap the t12 ballast in your old fixture with your new t8 ballast there same size.

T12tubes are the cheapest, as are the mounts to get them set up. I work at home depot. for a shoplight, that holds 2 T12 lights, its 8.69, and plugs into a wall outlet, or timer. the bulbs are around 9 bucks each. the T12's come in a few wattages, from 32-40 which is what the shoplight can handle.

Those aren't the bulbs you want. The $9 bulbs are aquarium/plant lights, which are actually not as good for vegging cannabis as the cheap $3-4/bulb 'cool white' t-12s.
