    GE 31554 strip AC or DC, voltage/amps, series or parallel please

    Shorter HID Bulbs

    Don't you hate it when you answer your own question 30 seconds after telling the world you are a dumbass? They call them 'compact' bulbs. Sorry for the frivolous post.

    Shorter HID Bulbs

    Have 3 400 watt MH/HPS fixtures with about 8" room for bulb length. Does anyone make bulbs that are higher wattage but shorter length? So far everything I have looked at larger than 400 watts is too long. The ballast will support 1000 watts but anything bigger than 400 would be welcome.

    Have one of their 600W fixtures and so far it is the best light I have. Also have 1x generic 600W, 2x 400W MH, 1x 400W HPS, 2x 15m strips and a few E27's. Will be tripling my lighting in April so I am watching all as closely as I can but so far the Phlizon is winning.

    Growing 'real' tomatoes so no blacked out windows. Want to use the grow lights to supplement the partial sun coming through the windows.

    Samsung lm301b or lm301h?

    Have been buying from China for more than ten years. Find most of what I get from China to be of same or better quality than USA. The bias goes back to the 1950's when companies were specifying cheap plastic parts from China and then complaining about the quality. If you ask for crap you get crap.
