You will definitely need more lights than what comes with the kit you want.

This light appears more in tune with what is needed...but the low price is waht concerns me.

It also appears this light is increasing the lumen rating with the parabolic reflector.

Dont let the no heat....low heat shit fool you either. A true 125W CFL gets hot enuff to sizzle and burn the skin right off of your arm.

I have permanent scars from such unfortunate run ins with them.

You get what you pay for.

The only way to tell is to try them and post the results.

Presonally, I think the price is way too low to be a true light for maximum growth. Just doesnt sound legit.

A lot of these companies selling low cost CFL such as these, cheat you on the mercury content inside the tubing.

This translates to a very very short life of the usefull lumens produced. While the bulb may burn for 2 years, the lumen output drops long before that.

Keep that in consideration on buying the cheapo lights like this on ebay.

These lights on this link may produce a modest yeild, but no more than one or two.

You get what you pay for....

Buyer beware.
