T5 at home depot cool and warm!!!!

[bongerstonerd00d]

OK, you've said it, now may I please see a link. When I type "T5 Lighting" in the <search> box at Lowes I see nothing matching a T5, 2foot, dual light setup for 19 bucks. Maybe I am missing something, but I seriously doubt it.

If what you are saying is true, then it would be cheaper for me to go to Lowes, buy their 2 light setup, toss the fixture, and use the bulbs in mine for less money than I pay for bulbs. And, I do like saving money, so point me in the right direction at Lowes website.

i can't help u as to the website i saw it at lowes when i went there and there 2ft t5 bulbs alone are 10 bucks each so thats all i know i've never been to there site lowes is like homedepot if u don't know

ok every body tumbstones are the light bulb connecters

and yes you can use a T 8 ballast if u know whats going on i put the tumb stone on it with tape and only used one side of the connecter because i got the skinny bulbs 1000 lumens each only two of them on a two bulb ballast working fine!!!!

and where i live if home depot and there are also lowes and k mart and walmart all sell the fixtures with T5 bulbs for around 20 spend a hundred and ull have a nice veg area

i bought these skinny bulbs for 5 each! just to try it!! and it worked i also found warm white full speatrum T5 and t8 also!

has any one ever herd of a fluro tube color chaud or something like that its pritty cool cause i didnt know they made warm bulbs in tubes!

bonger...something I've noticed in all of my dealings with homedepot and lowes, they don't show all their products on their websites. Some seemingly very common items aren't available to even view on their websites, let alone purchase on the site. :wtf:
