Hey everyone! been a long time since ive posted on here but I thought I would post a thread on my build I am starting. Just priced out and ordered 3x 2-24w T5HO 22" strips w/ ballasts & individual reflectors thru a supplier at my work. Was gonna go with dimmable ballasts but their was a price difference of almost $200 a set
. So I went with programmable start ballasts for longer lamp life . Here is a link of what i ordered :

Its just their spec sheet but you can see the specs/dimensions of the dual strips I ordered. Got lucky working for a electrical metal fab shop on pricing. Each dual strip worked out to $47 each for everything. I will be fabricating my own casing for the lights out of either 1/8 marine grade aluminum of S.S. and wiring it all up myself. I'll keep you all posted with pics as i go!
