Refugium Light

[ponokareefer]

I am needing a light for a refugium for my sump. The space isn't that large. What are people using for their light and bulb, and where do you get them from?

Some people use a clip on desk lamp with a HD compact fluorescent daylight type bulb, about 6700 deg. Kelvin. One of those curly cue ones.
Home Depot sells them amongst many other stores.

Are any of the Home Depot clip on lamps water resistant, or will parts rust?

I use a clip on Home Depot light but I found the cfl bulbs were burning out weekly. So I got a clip on fan from Canadian tire and faced it at the fixture. After 10 hours running the light is only warm to the touch and the bulb doesn't burn out. I haven't had any rust issues, the reflector I believe is aluminium so it's getting salt splashes but holding up well. I'm getting great growth in my fuge with an energy saver bulb, I believe it's 3700k.

I only see expensive clip on lights at homedepot.ca. Is this similar to what people have bought there?
