I tell you what....as I was poking around I did come across this place selling 8 bulb T5's ho for 209. That's a pretty killer deal considering it comes with a fixture and it will do 2 extra bulbs. Sunlight Supply 8 x 24 Watt New Wave T5 HO Fixture - 22" doesnt comes with bulbs and those can run another 5 to 8 each. So see...I did aight on my prices.
Prodaytrader Reviewed by Prodaytrader on . DIY T5? I have a ballast, 12 sockets and 6 bulbs at 2' length. Anyone have any great ideas on a fixture? Part of me says nail it all to a sheet of plywood and part says go buy a fixture for something else and gut it out to suit my needs. I just need a little veg light here, nothing too fancy in terms of reflectors and what not. Rating: 5
