uh, i think u must be refering to the 100w equivilent not actual watts cfls. my 40w cfls puts out 2600 lumens a piece. if your 100w cfl puts out only 1152 lumens i'd take em back and get some different ones.

I think you mean to say you are using 10x23w. Pretty sure the original poster was talking about 85 actual watts and not equivalency.

According to this website the 85w 5000k put out 4,200-5,000 lumens. That seems alittle low though.

dude, watts and lumens are not directly related.....400w hps puts out way more lumens than 400w of cfls. energy used is not the same as lumens put out.
