Maybe someone else who has an ebay account can try and get a hold of this guy. He has not responded to 3 emails of mine, yet he has great feedback.

It seems like we would be most likely interested in about 3 boxes in total, i will keep extras in case others are in need of some. Plus 2 18 watt replacement UV bulbs.

If we could try and figure out how much shipping would be i would put in the order.

Thanks

Steve

Personally, I think the local Brite-Lite option for the 55W is a great idea. Their 6500K is a sheer white, and bright as blazes. Unless they switched suplliers again, they rock.

I know you're keen on the others, but just in case.

Cheers,
Alan

Thanks Alan. I have considered them as well. The problem is i need some actinic as well as 10,000K so it limits me.

Do a RC search on jebo Steve, I could have sworn I read on there,
That the first thing you do when you get a jebo fixture is throw out the crappy jebo bulbs.

See from what i heard its the Jebo fixtures, but i could be wrong? As with most products they are all manufactured by one manufacturer and then sold to different companies from there. I would take the risk on getting 12 bulbs to Calgary for roughly $120. Even if they are not great at least i will know.

Ok well since its almost Friday i think i will delay this until early next week. I am considering brining in 24 bulbs in total (2 boxes). This will work out to roughly $10.50/bulb, which is a smoking deal after all is said and done. This includes GST, brokerage fees and duties (hopefully).

Anyone else please pm me if interested. I will definitly have extras!

Hi Steve,
I would be interested in a couple 12000k's and a couple of actinics. I am pretty sure that is the same retailer I bought my first set of Jebo bulbs from and they have been just fine. I ran a brand new set of the Jebo 12000k and actinics in a brand new 24" lunar aqualight right next to a brand new set of coralife bulbs (also in a new 24" lunar aqualight). I set up a 6 foot tank with these two fixtures running side by side (same amount of time) and I could not see a single difference from one side of the tank to the other as it went through the different fazes (except that one side had a bluish actinic and the other was purple). Just thought this might help some of the others that are having concerns about these bulbs.

Have a great day
Eric
