CFL question quick

[headshake]

I have a simple question and im not even sure it if matters...

When positioning your CFL's over the plants what way gives out the most light to the plant.

straight up and down, or on its side, or maybe at a 45% angle?

the space that it will be in will be lined with Mylar so i mean it will be reflecting all over the place but i just wanted to see if there was any real difference on how the lights put out light.

Thanks for you time guys.

make sure to read the package carefully. you can loose up to 20% of the output if you mount them certain ways. i think the one i read said base at the bottom with the light going up.

here is one little article i found real quick.
