Well I got them from Envirolite.com. They are here in the city but I think they only sell wholesale, so to retail stores looking to sell their products.

I'm not sure though. I just used my company name. The have daylight bulbs and actinic which are listed as 20,000k but thats what they call actinic.

They were pretty cheep and they come in 2 ft and 4ft (maybe more sizes now) and they have connector's to link them together. So in my hood I plugged a 2ft into a 4 ft and installed it into the hood. They are Electronicly ballisted and have mounting hardware and everything.

I was thinking about getting some and sellling them when I picked mine up but if others could buy them from them than that would be easy.

cheers.

Let me know what happens if you talk to them.

Are your t-5's HO versions? Also do they sell ballests and other endcaps?

No, just standard(low wattage) output's.

No other endcaps that I know of that are availiable. Just plug and play.
Simple.

If you get them to ship.......... use United States Postal Service with insurance. That way you don't get dinged by the courier companies with a $35 "proceessing fee". USPS only charges $5 :biggrin:

Agreed about using Postal Service to save on brokerage fees. But everyone says that shipping companies and post offices don't insure bulbs so paying for insurance might be a waste of money. Has anyone checked to see if your VISA insurance benefits covers glass breakage? If they do, then purchase with your VISA and make a claim if the bulb breaks during shipment. Of course, this doesn't help if you are buying from an individual or company that doesn't accept credit cards.

Each bank and each type of VISA (ie. Classic, Classic II, Gold, etc) has different insurance certificates. Check yours. Mine doesn't say anything about glass under Exclusions so I assume they would cover bulbs.
