Hey man, I picked that up last week. I was walking around looking for a Y bulb socket adapter and and an extension for my CFL, and then a Home Depot dude asked if I needed help. I actually didn't want to interact with anyone, but he was young and cool, so I told him I needed to add light to my storage room. He then gave me one of these--> and said, "hey, you need to check this bad boy out!"

We then walked over to the bulb aisle, and he was so excited, he lit it up to show me how bright it was. I bought it. Funny thing, this dude had another Home Depot dude hanging around, and they both chuckled when I put it in my shopping cart.

I'm pretty sure they are stoners too :jointsmile:

The bulb seems to be doing great so far; 'some good fast vegging going on. I have 2 other 26w CFLs too. Mine are still babies, and I only have a few, but I have no regrets. In a week, I hope to put them under a 600 HID.

S'up dudes? So how much is this light from HD? Sounds like it might be a good start for a small setup.

I think you'll find better deals on large screw-in CFLs here:

2 to 200 Watt Compact Fluorescent Bulbs : 1000Bulbs.com

pay close attention, to whether you're ordering the 'Regular', or, 'Mogul' screw bases, though ...

I've bought from them, several times :thumbsup:, located in Texas, fast shipping, very good Customer Service in case of any breakage, etc... :thumbsup:

also, look in their list for the 'odor-neutralizing CFLs' , they really do work ... (only when the lights are On, of course )
