My new light

You won't regret it!
If you put your hand to the end of your bulb you'll get a better idea of the huge difference, a parabolic throws the heat out like a doughnut as opposed to directly into your/my canopy like with horizontal fixtures.

You can measure it from anywhere on the bulb you like lol.

i am in agreement just not that far along yet give me a year i understand the concept i have installed hundreds of t5 parabolic fixtures in office buildings it all about focussing the light and getting the most out of every lumen

Love finding a deal! I have sourced a few things from Good will, street corners and the craigslist free section. Depending on location HPS/MH/CMH can all be found often times very cheap. Specially now as more and more growers switch to LED's and take advantage of the tax rebates and other incentives local and state governments are offering..

Careful introducing pallets and other materials into your space, mold loves to grow on old wooden pallets and can lead to other environmental issues pretty quick. My personal favorite is milk crates and twelve back racks (half the width of a milk crate) they work great and can be sanitized super easy in the tub.
 
I hadn't thought of that seems I'm always rebuilding thanks

i had pallets the first month when i realized it was unsanitary
 
never had a mold problem but they were pretty new my run off is contained inside the plastic so hopefully the moisture never makes it to the wood

I hadn't thought of this. Im going to Raleys and getting milk crates. I have the tent on a pallet to keep it off the concrete with a hard plastic barrier in between for stability. But I hadn't considered the pallet getting moist.
