be careful, most of the 65watters require that you also buy their fixture as

in other words, ...the bulb is made without a ballast so can't be used in standard
sockets. ...you'd never be able to use them in a cooltube like this.

btw, it was me that guessed he had 65watters by his pictures,
it wasn't him saying he did.
